Went to a NorCal San Mateo car show this past Saturday. 1970 Chevelle with a zz572 installed. Spoke with the owner and found out the following:

- Just installed with 500 miles on the engine. No problems and lots of smiles.

- Previously had a 454 installed

- Used the existing motor mounts

- Using Hooker SuperComps. Slight clearancing required on pipe to clear steering column drive when performing lock to lock.

- Difficult to get to back spark plug closest to passenger side firewall. Modified a spark plug (cut) to get access.

No other issues. Everything hooked up straight up. Gentleman was very nice. Very clean vehicle, which he has taken on two Hot Rod tours.
