First off, please turn off the caps...
"Yelling" is not required..
The LT1 will drop right into the 69 mounts (use both halves of the 69 mounts). You can use any off the shelf headers for a SBC in a 69. Your F-body accessory bracket will not clear the frame without some notching. Mainly the a/c compressor (so if you don't care about a/c, use the 1LE pulley setup and it may clear)
I have a 96 LT1 in my 68; using Accell DFI to run it.. one day soon I will have the turbos figured out.. check my tech page for pics.
