It's going to be tight between the Ram manifolds and the doghouse but it should be about 1/2-3/4 of an inch clearance on each side.

I'll get a pic but there is lots of room length wise, it had a Chevy I-6 in it before and the tranny is hooked up with a short pilot shaft(looks like two front yokes hooked together) and the clutch is hooked up using a cable
