I had always installed just the long block into the lakester, then did the cramming of all else. With the engine/drivetrain assembled from the test run, I decided to try installing it "whole". Only a couple pieces needed removal, such as the exhaust which protrudes out through the frame rails. Modifying some points of interference took me about three days, but it's now bolted in place. Adding fuel and oil tanks, plumbing, wiring, linkages, etc. will take at least a few more days.
