That's what I was afraid of. Either lift the motor a bit or remove the
steering column -- or both.
Did you end up dropping it in or lifting it up from the bottom?

Even on my '73 BGT I had to lift the motor off it's mount about 1-1.5" to
drop it down into place. But fully mounted there are no clearance issues.
I've have the complete 'big bore' system on my year round daily driver BGT
since '98. I did just recently replace the rear box as it finally started
blowing a seam. But the rest of the pipe is still there and in reasonable
shape.
