    Any one every tear and engine down because there pissed?

    Ok, so I’m changing out my fuel pump tonight, and I don't get to start until around 10:30 P.M. I start looking at it and realize that the power steering pump and the AC motor mount are in the way. So 20 minutes worth of work turns into an hour and a half. In the process of pulling the PS...

    Looking at 67 coupe and...

    Holy crap that car looks like mines twin. As far as advice, look inside the wheel wells for rust, see if you can get them to let you drive it if you go and look at it, make sure it starts easily and then idols smoothly.

    Squeezing a new engine in a 67 Coupe

    Rear suspension is new as of 3 years ago, so that should be fine, I plan of upgrading the front disc to a large disc and calliper. What kind of front suspension upgrades do you recomend? I still need to do my research on the transmition, just know I want to go with a manual tranny.

    Squeezing a new engine in a 67 Coupe

    So whats every ones opinion on the stroked 351W compared to the FE, would one choice be better than the other, this car wont see much of the strip, mainly for shows, only out in good weather not alot of mile being put on it each year.

    Squeezing a new engine in a 67 Coupe

    Im leaning towards the 351W and making it a 408 stroker, but man I've seen alot of power out of the FE's. I'm just trying to get every little detail figured out before I start buying parts.
