I'm not a big fan of detroit engine transplants in these car, but your car is exceptionally cool. I love it.

I'm a bit more of a purist... but DAYUM!!! Nicely done!

Liking it even more now that I hear the engine. What cam grind is in your 302?
Thats a lopey sounding idle you have there in the video!

Cheers!

Ever had to change a spark plug?

I'm impressed by the work you had to do to get it in there.

Thank you very much.
Sure the passenger side can be done from under the hood, with no problem. The drivers side is done from the inside where I put a hatch door to access the back two plugs but, the front two are done from under the hood I have changed them many times. Thanks for asking and your comment.

Looks amazing. How did you set it up so there's no bulge in the bonnet. Would love to see any pics of the sheet metal/chassis work you have.

To get motor to set lower we cut the front cross member out and lowered it by two inches. This allowed us to lower the motor and the center line of gravity. Now the cars up higher so I lowered it back down by converting the A arms to hold a Chevy S10 2 inch drop spindles. Plus I was able to match the bolt pattern of the Chevy rear end that it now has. Sorry I don't have many picture of the build. If I find some pictures I try and get them posted. Thanks Brad
