ahem. Just for the record...

Evan ... A 302 Ford engine into a GMC *truck* (pre-88) is a perfectly acceptable topic for this forum and does not need to be moved to the 'Spoon. We don't draw a line at Mustang II front ends or rear ends or any other part, so why would we for an engine? The main thing is that it is going into a *truck* A Stovebolt truck, to be exact. And if we need that defined (again), on *this* web site, we (um, I as creator and owner of this site) have defined it as any GM *truck* (including ancestors) built prior to the 1988 model year. I do not define sedan deliveries or El Caminos as "trucks."

Anything to do with a *car* does indeed go to the 'Spoon.

Any performance mod, including putting a Ford engine into a Stovebolt, is perfectly at home in this forum as long as it is being done to a *truck.*

That being said -- a warning...

Heretofore, we have turned a blind eye to some discussions involving cars (Stovebolt era cars, for example, but also non GM cars). This ends now. Henceforth, we shall be implementing a Zero-Tolerance policy for car discussions anywhere other than the 'Spoon -- I don't care *what* engine it has. If you want to talk cars, go over to the VCCA site wink

Thanks
