I know where his head would be, but where would his feet go?

Accelerating is optional...........stopping is mandatory. Your car WILL stop one way or another.

Hey Rob, good to see some progress pics. I pushed my motor back through the firewall also, but just 5 inches. I am still able to use the stock cowl panel but the firewall will be under the cowl panel a little ways. I did 67 nova with a big block pushed back a few inches and made the cowl a removable piece to access the dist.. Is that kinda what your planning or is the cowl going to become the rear of the hood?

Except the dizzy is in the front on a Ford
so that access is good unless you have a
Pantera and the damn thing is on the wrong end

But a Chebby motor is just not right in a Ford
but my buddy has a Cleveland in his Camero
dry lakes car doing 187 plus. now that is ok
