Havent but the bbc sits forward a bit more than a sbc and it gets pretty tght in there. Might be good idea to tube front that side and gut the fender but it will need trimmed and possibly move rad forward a touch

I do not. For you might just need the driver side, cut frame off just in front of the strut tower and trim fender.
Probably want to go manual rack pinion steering too

The car made 900 hp at 5800 rpm. This was with low boost, 93 octane and a hydraulic roller cam. Engine is out of the car getting some minor upgrades. Will be back on the dyno soon.

Re: F1X on BBC 88 Camaro
Very very nice, 900hp at the wheels is pretty impressive at low boost. I thought you were going to say that the motor popped or something when you said "Car ran good until it was on the dyno."
