If I swap motors I will store the Cleveland. I've been pricing a rebuild for the Cleveland and it will cost quite a bit more than the 429 I'm looking at.
    Well their you go. Never had a stang, but i could have just drop in a 429 in my 67 cougar without removing the sock towers,and a few mods and different trans. But what a knuckle buster,and I wanted more room to work on it with the after market heads blue thunder which take up another 1 1/2 of header space. And I also consider the extra 100lbs.
