Hey Guys,

RRF has a 58. They came stock with a V8 so there are no clearance issues or steering issues or brake pedal issues. Those are V8 AD issues.

If the 350 is drilled at the front for the front truck mounts it can be mounted as a stock 283 would have been. If is is not drilled for the front mounts I think most if not all of the blocks had the casting bosses where the holes go, so it would be possible to drill the holes and use the early mounts.

Easy swap. Just buy a repo firewall throttle linkage for a V8 truck and you are off and running. I used to fab them, but there are repop now. The holes should already be in the firewall for the linkage mounting.
