It would be financial suicide to put a chev motor in an ERA/SPF. Just isn't done. While your at it, use an automatic trans! A combination like that would guarentee minimal re-sale value, if you could sell it at all!

How 'bout a small block Ford in a 67 Vette? That would be "interesting". You think it would impact re-sale value, or inspire "off the wall" comments? Some combinations of car/engines just don't belong together, replica or not.

Like a Kirkham 427 body style with a Ford 289 or 302, heck even a 351, it just isn't done! And don't even THINK about using a Chev motor in THAT car!!!!

You could, it would be YOUR car YOUR way, but it would be financial suicide if you ever wanted/needed to sell it! It wouldn't be long before you would figure out you should NEVER open the hood in "public" (unless you like verbal abuse).

Gotta have a Chevy? Get an Arntz/Butler Cobra, FRR, Hunter, heck any number of builders, but not ALL builders. Choose the manufacturer wisely.
