Yes, they do fit well without any mods. I'm using 68-71 big block towers. The tightest area is at the lower control arm on the driver side. Probably about 3/4" clearance since i added the Ridetech arms. Factory a-arms had plenty of clearance. Here's a few pics of both sides so you can get a visual on it.

Oh, they also stay tucked nicely inside the frame rails.
