I have done this, as my car is a maxwedge with cast iron manifolds. The
easiest method, without scratching anything is to mount your steering box,
but not the column until you have bolted the engine with manifolds in place.
I would install the trans after you install the engine. These manifolds are
large upswept, and heavy. Worst of all, they are easily broken, I had the
body/paint completed before engine install, this was the easiest method with
no scratches or marks on the paint. Install the column last. Trust me, this
method is the easiest...Good luck.

 I JUST WANTED TO LET EVERYONE KNOW THAT I REALLY APPRECIATE ALL THE INFO I
HAVE BEEN RECIEVING OVER THE PAST FEW YEARS TO HELP ME ALONG WITH MY
PROJECT. I AM REACHING THE POINT WHERE I AM JUST ABOUT READY TO DROP IN THE
MAX WEDGE AND TRANNY. I NEED SOME TIPS AS TO WHAT'S THE BEST WAY TO DO THIS.
WHAT DO I NEED TO HAVE IN BEFORE I DO IT, AND WHAT SHOULD I WAIT TO PUT ON
UNTIL AFTER IT IS IN.
I HAVE THE SUSPENSION IN AND THE 4 WHEELS ON THE GROUND. HOOD IS OFF. DO
IBOLT TRANNY & MOTOR AND ANGLE IN? PUT IN SEPARATE? SHOULD STEERING BOX GO
IN FIRST? FACTORY HEADERS IN BEFORE ENGINE? QUESTIONS OF THIS SORT IS WHAT I
AM LOOKING FOR.

THANKS AGAIN,
SCOTT
