I just look at it this way --- it's HOT RODDING -- which means you use whatever you can afford - or makes sense - or someone gives you - or you have laying around. In hot rodding -- there was NEVER any brand loyalty.... it was a Caddy motor in your Merc if that's what a guy had.... or a Olds in your '32 Ford....
We use FORD 9" because for the most part they're cheap - easy - strong as hell - and you can get all the brake parts etc for them you could ever want...
I know that Roy was cringing silently when I said what motor I wanted to use in the '33... but when he drives it -- he'll be singing the LS Motors praises! HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA -- I'm serious!
