i just think you’re not experienced enough to go the other route, i assume that would involve a lot more work? I mean i guess thats how you learn to do something but i’d stickk with what you got.

true, but i’d probably make my dad help me with the 360

but with some headers, cams, k&n intake, and a few other stuff i bet the shelby would float with stripped down interior and other weight reduction

speaking of that ,this winer my dad is selling the six pack engine and gettin a crate hemi for the road runner. the 440 six pack isn’t a matching engine for it anyway so someone that has a 6pack RR or superbee needs it and will shell out for it. the hemi is about $12k

chrysler used to sell RWD conversions for those cars a long time ago witha front K-frame for V8 rear drive. I saw it in an old mopar performance catalog. Make it RWD gets my vote.
