rspears, thanks for the formula. I'm going to have to sit down and play with some numbers.

I got ambitious today and decided to get the old engine pulled. Turned out to be a bit more work than I was expecting. But then again everything takes longer when you're working by yourself. Tomorrow I will make a rolling stand for the motor. Since my work area is small, everything must be on wheels. If I have time tomorrow I will also lift the body off of the frame. Hopefully sometime next week I can send the frame off to be blasted. Then I will have a better idea of what I'm working with. But from what I've seen of the frame. It's not bad at all.
I had the engine just about out when I remembered to take some pic's.


It's hard to believe I'm going to put a sbc back in that little space.

How about a 4.6 Mod Motor, or a 5.0 Coyote, or a 5.0 SBF? It's not a '29 Chevy, is it?
