    You could run the chevy, and build up the ford. Might have to make some adapters for the crossmember. I am a Chevy Guy all the way, but in a ford car such as yours, go for a ford engine. Anything would be good, maybe the big valved 351 (Winsor I think). Or the 302, that thing CAN SCREAM if built right. Fords are more expensive, but is worth it.

    1940 Buick Roadmaster, Straight 8, 3 speed column, Stock and original, Soon To Be cruising! Then possibly bagged with the help of some friends.

    1994 Chevy 1/2 ton 2wd Std cab long box, 6.5L Turbo Diesel, 4" straight exhaust, modded intake, Locker, intercooler, and gauges on the way.

    22 yrs old, no house payment, no wife, but plenty of bills.
