Do you plan on installing the long tubes on the engine and then installing it? If so I say to you good luck getting them past the subframe. I currently have my engine out and it was a real @#$ with long tubes installed. I ended up removing the headers in chassis to get it out. When I go to install this thing back in, trans is coming out and im dropping the subframe. I will install the engine with headers on to the subframe and bolt it down, pull out engine/trans harness and hook it all up. Bolt the trans back on to the engine and lower the whole body down on to the subframe. I have a hoist so its gonna be pretty easy.
