Actually, i've always liked cleveland engines and C6 transmissions, i owned a 1978 F-150 with the choked 2 barrel 400 and knew there was alot more in that engine that what come from the factory (4* retarded crank sproket, small cam, 350 cfm 2 barrel, exh. manifolds with 2 or 2.25" single exhaust). Not only that but how many people are dumb enough to try and pull it off
Now most people would try a 460 with a plethora of swap components for a fox body and would make more power for equal maybe even less money.....but......hmmm......
anyway, it'll be a fun swap if i'm able to follow through with it, since i also have my 5.0L GT as a project.
