    When I first put a V8 in mine I tried to break the little rear end 'cause I had an 8" waiting to go in, couldn't do it.

    Looking at your avatar, how do you get your car to cling onto a wall like that?

    :Welcome: from just up the coast in New Brunswick! That looks like a beautiful 70!! Was that car for sale locally at Carroll St Automotive? I think I remember seeing one just like that on their web-site a while ago.

    Are you going with headers, or do you plan to use the manifolds on the engine in your picture? The manifold in the picture likely won't work. Mustang manifolds don't fit, especially on the driver's side. You'll want one that looks like this:

    Please keep the pictures coming!! Looking forward to seeing more of your build!! :thumbs2:
