My buddy at work put a blown 302 carb into a 65. I know he had to lower the engine to get it to fit as the blower is a top mount type.

I've seen quite a few EFI 5.0's in classics, I like them a lot more than another boring carbed 289 or 302 in a stock-looking classic. Definitely doable, but it's a project for sure.

My brother did it to his '67. I don't think it was that difficult if I remeber correctly. I think the only minor issue he came across was fabing a proper cross memeber?
