Thanks Bill. Yeah, I can't decide between a big block and a small block. Can anyone help me??
No, it's not for my Cobra. That's got an engine (though I did consider yanking it for this). As Bill said, he's picking up a roller for me. It's an '88 Mustang, set for open track. It needs to have a motor and trans dropped in it. Hopefully Bill will be able to grab it for me within a week or two (again, many, many thanks to him for doing me this HUGE favor). I've got good leads on drivelines, as soon as I can make up my freakin' mind...though I'm pretty sure I'm going to go with a 351W a buddy is offering and a T5 being offered by another friend. I need to drop them into the car and put it together.
My mechanical skills and experience is limited to
oil change and very minor things under the supervision of my friend/mechanic. But with the help of friends, I'd really like to try to drop the motor and trans into this thing and get it going. All I ask is that people be patient with me, because I don't know much about what I'm doing with a wrench.
I have a garage, but it isn't heated. I'm sure we can find someone local to offer to use a garage, or it should start warming up in a few weeks...at least I hope....
