That makes the engine bolt in nice. wiring is easy enough. do the B/RB exhaust manifolds work and leave clearance to get the rest of the exhaust on? or is a custom header needed. if b/rb manidolds work witch ones (from what car)?

Looks like run-of-the-mill log-style manifolds, Mopar's de facto standard exhaust back then, used on various models. Otherwise, you'd need a custom header arrangement. They also have an under chassis B/RB custom header exhaust. It's intended for even the little A-bodies. Seems like it could be tweaked for the Dak.

with the stock valve covers, it should clear. It might now clear with the mopar performance covers.
