On the positive side.....he is half way to a nice car. It just needs the "right" engine! It is fixable. At least he recognized a great body style when he saw it.

The owner is just trying to rationalize taking the easy route and going with the masses who put the SBC in everything.

Why waste a good engine on a non-driver (look at the steering coupler).


They say there are no such thing as a stupid question.
They say there is always the exception that proves the rule.
Don't be the exception.

Wasn't thinking chrome so much as it appears to be a rag joint setup that is touching the header, not a good combo, imo.

My leaning trend is to put a Mopar in everything. Unless I have a free small block Chevy laying around.

Right now I'm putting together a 1930 Ford Coupe with a big block Chrysler, 727, and 8 3/4 rearend!

plus the fact the rag joint appears to have some angle to it and the coupler at the firewall is NOT designed to be used as a u-joint.........
