I ran into the same exhaust problem putting in a 350 SBC into my D50 4x4. I put a body lift on it and used block hugger headers. Your problem is no one makes a smog legal block hugger headers that I could find. Is the 5.3 longer than the 350. Reason I ask is I was able to install a large aluminum radiator and mechanical fan with shroud without cutting away the radiator support like you did.


Trucks have longer engine bays than monteros.


The gen 1 Mighty Maxs have a smaller engine bay then the gen 2 Mighty Maxs. Some people have told me that the gen 1 has a curved firewall (I dont really see it but it is for sure smaller) that sizes down the motor bay. Putting a big motor in a gen 2 is pretty easy more then one guy has sneaked in a 350, 351, 318, 360 just about anything into the gen 2 Mighty max
