Funny you should say that...
Before Dad passed, he talked about doing exactly that..
I was afraid it would make the car too nose heavy...
Well you should bring his Dream alive.

Rollbar and 5-point harness in the new/redesign of the over tubs fold down "Rumble Seat"
Note - all participants in the "rumble seat" ride must make the minimum weight requirements, as it is critical to the outcome of the ride

Re: Project CIII
Nothing wrong with sorting out the car with a SBF, getting everything working the way you want, then making adjustments for the changes you may want in the future (BOSS9), it will be badazz no mater how you decide to do it, and just because you started it that way doesn't mean you can't change it later.
Happy B-Day

Re: Project CIII
Well Gentlemen...It's like this................lol
Using a small block, I can go from 410W to, blown Cleveland to,... in no time.
And I have the collection of parts to build those..
I've sat a 460 block in there, and while it fits with lots of room, There is too much hanging out past the frt crossmember.
This one is/ was being built to be a street "playtoy".
Not to say I won't take it to the track, but that is not the main focus..

Nope...... 2008 is shiney and running, 70 is in the body shop and the motor is almost ready for the dyno, the motor is done for the 85 and waiting for me to get the car, even got a 428 for the 66 half way done.
