You can't really be serious here. This has got to be a joke!!! If you're waiting to pop an engine before you start doing something?

What you're asking is for a project vehicle----it has to be retrofitted from the headlights to the taillights

Find one you can spend some time on and build it right.

Oh, just an idea at the cost---I'm gonna take a WAG and say 75-100G and about 3-5 years.


Any other guesses??????


Anybody seen my 9" Ford rear gear and 4 link---I know I left it around here somewhere?

For those guys out there that want to convert to a carb on a hemi (for whatever reason)...MSD makes a controller http://www.msdignition.com/Products/...ontroller.aspx

XV has a kit (manifold, carb and MSD controller) http://www.xvmotorsports.com/media/X...CARB%20KIT.pdf

Carb on hemi, easy. Carb on 4.7, little harder. Now that I think about it, I seem to remember someone saying something about adapting a 4.6 ford mod motor carb intake (they make THOSE) to a 4.7.

Yeah, I did. They do this to use a 4.6L Sullivan spider intake on the 4.7L.
