If you are useing a manual trans. you need a bell houseing from a 55-72 v-8 or a 63-72 6 cyl. excluding the early 60's with hydraulic clutch. The front engine mount kit like the factory used is available from the speciaty suppliers or you can use a universal side mount kit. The throttle parts are also available but you can adapt a cable system from a 71 up or a street rod universal one.
You will be pleased with the results. It weighs less then the 235 & puts the weight further back making it easier to steer & handle better. If you use HEI it is real close to the firewall. I like to use a point type dist with an electronic changeover.


They say money can't buy happiness. It can buy old Chevy trucks though. Same thing.
