351 into a 72 maverick grabbler

Well I just sold the 351 - I got 300$ for it and the heads. I've been talking with cyclonwill and we are working on a package deal - wheels - 302 and ç4. So I decided to see if I could get anything for the 351 - I had it posted for maybe 20mins and some guy wanted to come look at it.... He brought tons of different tools and speced it out. He took it home with him..... While he was here he looked at the car and said I paid for the rear end and the car was free. Lol. He said the rear end is a 9ich and is probably worth 4 to 500.
He also bought some of the extra gauges and other stuff I got - end up with 450 Total.

Side note....
He also suggested I get a 5.0 from a 96 or up and swap the heads and carb - intake and I could make 300 rwhp..... I'm thinking about doing this and then using cyclone's engine as a super build stroker engine. What do y'all think?

I'm Psyched.... I'm in this 50$ at this point!

 

Tom this is probably the most important question I'll ever ask you. This is Dyer and urgent. Is this car ( front bumper) a big bumper or small bumper car? From everything I can tell it looks like a small front bumper car¿

 

Beginning with '73 models, the Fed mandated 5 mph(or was it 2.5?) impact bumpers on all vehicles... These were front only and are smaller than the later models... The '74 up have 5 mph on both ends... It's common for bumpers to be swapped to the earlier type, very popular mod... You need to be sure VIN on vehicle matches title...

 

Yea I'm gonna end up having to do the bumper swap cause I'm not putting that ugly fat bumper on the front.
