JCG Restoration & Customs - 70 Mustang Build

[Cris@JCG]

Big motor for only 302 CI.. I like the way a Coyote would look in a engine bay.. but packaging is tough.. The LS engine is an all around good motor that can build some serious HP & close to being the same size as a gen 1 SBC..

Right now I still have plans to make sure that what ever custom work I do to fit the LS engine.. also works for the Coyote.. on the x-member & engine mounts... If not I got a 67 FB that I will fit it in that I can cut it all up to proof fitment.. I got alot Mustang stuff going on.. Plus Mopar stuff that I will be working on in mid January.. I might be getting a 70 Cuda Prototype re-production shell to play with..

I think the Coyote even out does the Boss 429 when it comes to space requirements. They try to market it as a motor for your project but there arent many cars out there that dont require a complete custom front end to make the thing fit.

Skip- I have seen this thread... Thank you for the info..
