center dump wont work.u will need car manifolds dumping in the rear The engine will be set back against the firewall, and I remove all that engine mount brackets on the frame. That's why I'm thinking center dumps might work. Going to order an ultra bell and do some mock up soon. I fab my mounts using 3/16 plate and using the truck brackets and mounts. I'll post plenty of pictures.

Hauled it to the courthouse today for the title vin inspection. Now I can tear it apart! Doghouse, engine, trans., and the bed should be off soon. Pictures to come. Wow in Pennsylvania we just pay taxes on the sale price and get the title.

KY is hardcore on vehicles from out of state. VIN inspection on car, must match title. Special paper must be signed by seller and notarized. If not, you pay sales tax on highest book value that can be found for that model! Even if title from other state doesn’t require notary, the KY form does.
I just had an ordeal on my truck this year. Had a transposed number. A b and a d were back to back and flipped on the title. Sherrif threw a fit and it took days to find somebody who knew what arcane form was needed to fix it. I had to call the state capitol, multiple trips places, inspection fee. Lots of “we can’t do that” nonsense. Just insane level of bs that should’ve been handled on the spot, but wasn’t.
Oh and in 4 years they are likely going to make me bring it in to see if I fixed it up and add a raise to my assessed value. Heard some guys are getting popped with that. Might depend on which of the 120 counties you are in...
I want my fair share

It would be a lot easier/lighter to throw a 4.25 crank in a 5.9 magnum and use all bolt in readily available stuff to get 440 CID in there and you could still get to the plugs real easy when done.
I am not causing global warming, I am just trying to hold off a impending Ice Age!

Dang I was looking forward to seeing somebody do one now that the schumacher kit is out of production I may do the mockup for the mounts and such but don't want to spend much money on it until I get a building up.
