It looks like my BBK long tubes are rattling against my tranny bellhousing. What do you recommend I do to get this rattling to stop. Someone told me to adjust the motor mounts. Would that be a tough job?

I would suggest a crobar. Just bend them back a way from it. I've had to bend my exhaust in several places that way.

The K-frame has oblonged holes in it. You can loosed the nuts, lift the motor up to and inch or more and tighten them back up.....but remember the trans will move with the motor because they are bolted together. I suggest the pry bar method as suggested....but do it gently. You don't want to bend anything too far.
