You may find an easier
way to take care of some of the aspects
of this conversion. This is of course not
the only way to do this but it is the way
that we did it. Yes, the conversion is
done and the car is running. We still
have to tune the carb a bit and the
timing is off a little. But it runs. How
fast? SCARY FAST.
As I progress with this website, I will
include links from this page to more
detailed information on each of the
parts. I can assure you though that with
creative engineering you will be able to
do the same conversion for under $500.
Myth #1: Headers are
expensive. $149 through Lane Automotive
Myth #2: Double sump oil
pan: Hmmm Stock Chevy rear sump is
working just fine. (Tap it LIGHTLY with a
hammer anyways.) A double sump would have
been better.
Myth #3: Electrical a
pain. Ground everything, run one wire to
the alternator and one wire to the
ignition. Hook up your gages as
instructed by their manufaturer. Ford
used 12v & Chevy 12v. Electrical is
quite simple. |
