Thank you for the links to the stroker kits. That cammer engine sure looks sweet! Like pops said we did the measurements and a SBF would fit with room to spare (no header clearance issues at all) You can get a lot of torque out of a SBF for sure. Every Lincoln towncar or Ford Full size I have owned from the 80's had one and they weighed ever bit as much as this t bird. They were only 180 hp too! My t scoots with the 85 roller engine in it (obviously weighs much less) The internet sites list my car at approx. 4500 pounds with a 390 setup. Dual quads on a built 302 would move that tbird respectfully. I am leaning towards the 390 though. Theres something to be said for a big block Heres a pic of the 302 in my t during the build. This would not look bad either. Easy to find parts for! P.S. NO SBC POPS! NOT IN A TBIRD! love a sbc though!
