Using the 60-66 horns as bumper 'brackets' to attach to the post-66 frame would work.

The alternative is just splicing (welding) the 60-66 horn ends to the post-66 frame rails. I didn't want to permanently attach them until I could 100% verify they were in the correct position w/the body swapped.

Building a small, high rpm engine with the perfect bore, stroke and rod ratio is very impressive.
It's like a highly skilled Morrocan sword fighter with a Damascus Steel Scimitar.....

Cubic inches is like Indiana Jones with a cheap pistol.
