Yes, there's distortion of the front frame rails where the A-arms mount. It had negative camber which could not be corrected even with the maximum number of shims. I got it to positive camber by welding 3/8" thick spacer plates where the upper A-arms mount. It drives good now.
I believe it was Ed DeFrehn (sp?) in Florida who built the 467" engine. I've put another 60k or so miles on it and have yet to even remove a valve cover!
