BBC in 4th gen Camaro

Contemplating a BBC in 4th gen Camaro for strip use. Has anybody got info on pitfalls? Carb to cowl clearance? Distributor clearance or run a front drive? Header clearance? Anyone put a kickout pan on there with stock crossmember, even on a small block? Anything else helpful?

I have contemplated doing this as I am a BBC diehard. Silly Rabbit Small Blocks are for kids.
I have not begun this, but I was going to run dual PCM's and dual throttle bodies. Make my own intake by shaving the tops off two LT1 intakes and making a sheet metal intake. I have allot of the concepts mapped out. You would have to blister the hood because the BBC sit higher. I was going to put a Turbo 400 or a glide behind it. Will fit no problem. I just need to find a 4th gen body. Good luck with this. maybe I will beat you to it.
