Want info on swapping six banger out for a 5.0 or 5.8.. HELP please!!
Ok heres the scoop, I have a sweet 64 Galaxie that was a grandmas car. It has a straight 6 in it. Here is a list of things I want to do to it, within a budget of course.. lol I want to swap that six banger out for a 5.0 or a 351. An engine that is failry common and easy to get parts for is my reasoning. I know I wil cut off the clutch pedal, I know it will need an automatic and sterring column. I want to add disc brakes, I have read other forums saying you can pull off a set from certain years, etc. Lastly I want to add power steering. Is it wise to put in a rack or go with a gearbox. Any advice and info is glady appreciated, thanks for putting up with my ramblings
I saw last night on fb about John. The world sure lost a great one. I'm going to miss his humor, advice, and perspective from another portion of the world. Rest in Peace Johnboy.
