..."my 4 speed, dual quad positraction 409."
Side note: my first Chevy was a 396. 
Mine was anything but elegant.
1966 Caprice Wagon 396 Rochester Quadrajet
Dual exhaust
4 speed M-21 (from the factory!)
3.08 posi rear
L78-15 oversized tires (equivalent to P235/75-15)
I think it was a bit over 4000 lbs.
Changed motor mounts 3 times one year. 
Bought it from my cousin who worked at my uncle's shop for $325.
On the highway usually about 18 mpg.
In the city maybe 9. (If there was good music on, more like 6.)
But gas was like 75 cents/gal.
No stereo but I installed an aftermarket 8-track and put a pair on Fisher speakers in back. 
The best of times. 
While I was in college, I bought and sold cars to make a little extra money to supplement my part-time jobs.
(I had four '56 Chevys alone)
Said cousin had a mid-sixties Corvair with a 350 in the back seat.
Can you say wheelstand?
...that being some kind of project car. I'm not sure of the exact issue. I suspect motor mounts to accommodate a V-8 where a flat 6 was designed to be. You're probably right about it being a challenge getting the taller engine to fit above the drive train and under body panels and window.
Of course there's a radiator to consider as well... 
...Those that would their true love win at Miles Cross they must bide...
