I recently purchased a 1970 Pontiac lemans with a 350 engine in it. I replaced the warped headers with the origional manifolds to quiet the car down when I discovered the bottom end was knocking. What would I need to do to place a 1975 olds 455 engine into this automobile. What kind of motor mounts or what major problems will I run into? Thanks!
