Did forget, change the oil pressure line fitting to the M one before installing the frame rail. Makes it easier anyway. Also a 450 manifold sometimes needs a little web grinding for the m throttle rod that passes between it and the head to not rub. Or the rod bent some. Sometimes the head studs on a 450 are not long enough for the M throttle bracket and a full nut.
Have in the past when running into that problem and couldn't get the head studs out to put longer ones in without head removal. Used long nuts like used on some spring U bolts on the head studs and torque down. Drill the bracket mounting holes big enough to pass over the nuts and rest against the head. Use short bolts in the long nuts above the stud with spacers cut from 1 inch thin wall pipe and a flat washer to hold the throttle bracket down.
