Hello friends. Last night I put the 3.4 in the 79. I used the stock motor mounts from the engine, cut the motor mounts off the frame, lowered them 0.5" and moved them back 3.75". The motor fits with the clutch fan and the radiator. I did not have to cut the hood. I do not have a body lift.
Here is the engine in the bay:

And here is it with the hood on and closed:

The R150F fits perfect, I don't think I'll have to cut much to make the shifter fit. Everything went together great. Waiting on parts to finish steering, axle trusses, and differential armor.
Cheers
