Remember the old straight eights they used to put in cars up until the 40s, lol ?
shorten the drive shaft a little and you're there  ;)

even the V12 engines back in those days only put out 140 HP

this is an old topic, but if the cylinder head is ever rebuilt or upgraded, you should be able to use unleaded fuel with new valve and timing configurations

Cranman I was looking @ a couple of pics of KPM's bomber. He has a 302 Ford with a manual trans in his. Says there's room. Can you put a c 6 automatic with that? Maybe KPM can put a couple of close up pics on for us to see.
KPM do you still have the stock diff or is it changed? I read on the net that a 302 is 3" shorter & 2" narrower than a 351W. KPM said there's enough room to change the plugs on his.

 Joke for all. What does Ford mean spelled backwards?  Drof ?;; driver returned on foot!! It's only a joke!!

What does Mopar stand for?  More old parts are recycled!!
 
agree there
you can use an old mustang motor 289 or 302, lots of torque there...as i remember from my old hot rodding days those engines were designed to fit in a small engine compartment, mustang, cougar, and they have a very narrow bank as compared to other V8 engines of that era
