Default 440 motor mounts

Im gonna build my own solid steel motor mounts on my duster ( for my 440). I'm am a welder by trade. I am just wondering, do you think by building my motor mounts I can somehow fit my power steering (non- saginaw) in? I've got the cppa 2" headers. Oh yeah, Ive got to figure how to put the pump on the 440 also. All I have is the 340 mounts. On the 340 the pump mounts low. I think on the 440 it mounts high? I'm down to the little details on this thing, and would appriciate any help. Thanks in advance,

Clearance is so tight with those headers. You better go with the correct placement mounts. I would bet money that if its off a least bit they wont fit. I have a buddy who just purchased a set and put them on a 440 Duster, was running Schuamacher headers and mounts. He said it was a nightmare. Took several hours to do. Better devote a entire evening for installation. But if it the engine is in a differant position, It may not happen, result in a new headers that looks like it came from central Iraq.

Yea, my buddys 450 horse skinny block. 11.20's and he cant get it to hook. He's letting me use his garage to build the duster. He also has a 70 1/2 365 horse Z28, a 70 340 cuda, and a 98 360 dodge ram sport. He says " mopars are too expencive to make a race car". We'll show him huh...
