Big Block Conversion $$$
Thanks for the input! Yeah....I understand about having to change everything else in the drivetrain...I already have poly-bushings and .920(could be .890?) T-bars. All that was free! (Early "B-day" present while I was away...8) Thanks Dad!!) Either way....they are much better than those stock slant-6 pieces. Unfortunatly....only the engine is there for $250...nothing else. I really hope it's a 383. I've been looking at alot of engine bay pics...and a 383 is just easier to service. :read2: The tranny....I can find one of those. The driveshaft.....that might me a little harder. I have a 9" Ford just sitting in the shop.....?? Possibilities? It didn't cost me anything...I pulled it off an early model Fairlane. Disc brakes are on the list.....I think I'm going to try the Scarebird kit....that's the best bang-4-the-buck I've seen. (beside factory setups). BUT....if I change the rear-end....I would love to go ahead and ditch that SBP shtuff.....hehe. I despise the small selection of wheels, even though Coy's has some seemingly *nice* C-5 wheels for sbp guys. Anyways....I guess I better go buy the engine! Another thing....Is it possible to move the rear-axle back about 1-1/2?? It looks like I could get a lot bigger tire in there...plus fill up that wheel well. And maybe even fix the driveshaft problem at the same time??? I'm trying to stay away from tubs. Thanks for the input.
