I have some video also but need to use a hi-speed to upload that.

Here's the drivers side...it drops in from the top but requires the steering shaft be removed first. Also had to dent tube #2 to clear the spark plug...the plug was actually touching the header tube.

OK...for some reason this pic does not want to work. I'll try to get it figured out....in the meantime.....


Here's the passenger side...it had to go in from the bottom. It required clearancing the starter mount on the bellhousing. Also had the dent the header tube about 2" ahead of the collector. A min-starter also made things much easier.

Looks like you cut a good portion of the passenger side frame rail out too. I hope you reinforced what was left. And with that said, you could have moved the engine toward the passenger side to gain more drivers side clearance.
 
I rolled the edges in then boxed the frame on both sides. That was done when I was trying to fit a set of Hooker Super Comp headers. They were NO where close ti fitting...plugs were hitting tubes, starter had a tube going right through where it mounted, just a ton of fitment issues.
