I had to grind my /6 ears down and drill new holes, no big deal. Total cost with you having a motor, resealing, header, install kit, exhaust, rad around 1500 or close. If you have a 8 1/4 it will hold up to 450hp or so. 7 1/4 take it out.
Yeah, when the time comes I'm going to try to do a lot of it through a trade since I won't have the cash amount in a while. But I do however have my current /6, 2 Cragar wheels (unknown condition atm), and a pretty solid BMW e28('83 528e) shell with a busted motor. Thats gotta be worth at least a little bit! haha
Edit:
Since this thread didn't die yet, anyone have a link to all the accessories I will need? Do i need an MSD Ignition kit, or can I use a stock 440 ignition, dist, sparkwires and plugs?
