Any FE will bolt in and will bolt to the Fordo with a F-1 convertor. I ran a Ford o matic
behind a 427 Ford and it held up fine. A C-6 will also fit with a little change on the
rear mount. Stock Rad will work also. May have to change the outlet location.
You'll ned headers or the flat manifolds. F.P.A. makes ready made headers for it.
I have a 429 in mine now.Pretty large engine. My car has had every kind of Ford motor
in it through the years. Have Fun
