    5.0 to 429 conversion

    The engine is complete with heads.... he is supposed to bring in all the specs for me, all I know is that they are aluminum.... I know that's is not much to go on, but I really wasn't serious about this motor until last week when he dropped the price... I'll post them when I get them......

    Short Throw Shifter Questions:

    I have the Steeda Tri-ax..... and I love it... but to answer your question what makes them so great.... The Steeda as well as almost all others have a single position handle or shaft (two different height settings but single handle position) where if you look at the pic of the MGW in Roland69s...

    I think I'd probably keep it carbed, I believe it has a holley 750 double pumper on it now (it's brand new, never has had gas in it....)

    Oh I know the 429 is stout and I love the big block sound.... but money wise would it be wiser to build a motor that is more or less a drop in which I could eventually change out the tranny and all that to a beefier one....? right now I have EFI and this 429 is carbed... if I were to get...

    well...... my bubble has burst....it in fact is not a Boss :nonono: ..... I still may buy it and turn it around..... I don't know... maybe I'll go with a 351.... like I said I do my own work and everything, but when it comes to the pro and cons of different engines, I don't really know that...

    Thanks for the pics.... it does look more like the one on top with the wider heads(if my memory serves me correct).... I need to get the pics from him, I saw them a while back because he originally was going to sell it to me for 4500 a couple months ago..... I'm helping him with his car which is...

    Yeah this thing is huge, I know I would have a lot of work ahead of me.....but it'd definitely be a different animal!!! I'm sure it'd be a chore when it's in the fox body as the rear two plugs are already a PITA to get to....

    I know it's an awesome deal.... I'm going to get the specs from him and run it by you guys, I know how to do engine work and all that, but identifying them as a boss or not I'm not sure..... the guy that built it is reputable so I'm taking his word for it... I'll try to get pics as well.... what...

    Thanks for the info! The guy was putting it into a '69 (non boss) and realized that the steering and all that would have to be reworked and custom headers would have to be made, he works here along with another guy who had a built 351 with 700 miles on it.... the guy with the 351 wanted to buy a...

    I have the opportunity to get a Boss 429 engine, brand new has 6K into it for 3K (I know the guy), aside from the tranny and rear end and other reinforcements... what else would be needed to make this conversion possible (if it is possible) are we talking new motor mounts and all that??? I was...

    I hate Winter (northern guys chime in)

    very interesting...really. it is, I've been in in NC basically since 98 aside from the two years in Florida, and I never saw an alligator here, so I did some quick searching, and it seems as though there have been some sightings near the coast, but it's very rare to see them over by your...
