Big block has the best wow factor when opening the hood. If it was hard to drive a manual box with a bb, they would have never offered the combo. But they did make them this way, so it will be fine. Power will make it more enjoyable if driven regularly. You will need new front springs. These days ( and I absolutely love my bb’s ), I’d opt for a 427 small block. If torque and drive ability are the deciding factors?
