T_M's Official 351 Fuelie Project Thread

[The_Methodist]

The stock hood is a must because I am essentially rebuilding a car I had 6 years ago that was wrecked by someone running a red light. It also had a 351 Fuelie in it and I stuck it under a stock hood.

The car had custom paint and I am redoing that exact paint job. I had bought the car with the custom paint before I put the 351 in it and I didn't want to have to repaint a hood, not to mention it makes a hell of a sleeper to have it all stuffed under the stock hood.

There will be no performance cuts taken as the motor can be effectively dropped by using a drop tubular kframe and or drop engine mounts.

If worse comes to worse and I have to get something with a small cowl, I will. I am confident that it will go under the stock hood though.
