Here is an old, but valid article about 351 into 65/66' conversions that I found interesting. This article talks about both 351W and 351C swaps.

Coke Challenge Continues. . . .

Looking at my car 4MuscleMachines, I guess my body sits a couple of inches higher than yours. I have 24" tire in the front and 23.5" in the rear. Everything else has been mentioned before.








Pictures 1,2, and 4 above show how much closer to the body my whole exhaust is--almost hidden by the subframes.
