New Project for the Coupe
 
Lee and I went to pick up my next project for the coupe last night.... 351w :banana:


It obviously needs to cleaned up and also get rid of that damn 2bbl intake. First on the list is to completely tear it down and put all new bearings rings, seals, gaskets, and a timing chain in it.

My short term goal is to convert it to fuel injection and put it in the coupe as it sits (stock heads and cam). This way, I can get a dyno baseline and also drive it around as a 351 while I save enough money for the second stage of the swap which will consist of replacing all the internals and opt up to a 427 stroker.

Long term goal is to eventually have a 7.0L TT. :evil:

Ahh, Eric beat me to it. I was trying to pull this info up. I was thinking you could use a roller cam in these blocks as long as you tapped the galley for the spyder.
