I used a carb plate
By x1968x - 09/09/2002 8:39:36 PM; IP 68.57.105.61
to reinstall my 428 in my '68. It's a cast iron manifold. I'm still kinda surprised it worked (thank you God!). In the attached pic's you can see what was on the engine pre-install. There are 5 shots to scroll thru.
I know you are pulling rather that installing, but it will work the same both ways. If you look carefully at the exhaust manifold you'll see that I had the original engine hoist bracket on the wrong way. Had to fix it with the engine in about 98% of the way. Just gotta love cars to do this stuff!

(take a good look at your chain condition too...)
