What do we need to do to get this motor in? Now its easy to assume that the Ford engine mounts do not match up to the Chevys. We found our Hot Rods engine and trans mounts at Chasssis Engineering. They come with hardware and simple instructions. Our Ford frame is "X" shaped and has a bracket that strengthens the "X" where the frame intersects. The original needed to be drilled out and refitted with the conversion piece.
Get it together
Our conversion pieces lined up well with the original holes. We needed to enlarge some holes to install bolts, and drill some new holes, but all in all, its not too bad, just a bit tougher with the body on the car. The lower suspension arms need to be mounted to our center support differently and retrofit brackets are available to do this. The engine mounts are installed via a diagram. Measure twice and drill once. This is very easily done.
Mock it up
We had access to a junk engine and trans for fit. If this is not available to you, do not worry. Just use what you have and be a bit more careful. Our motor and trans fit perfectly with no surprises and looks great. Check all clearances, especially firewall. Chevys have the distributor at the rear so make sure there are no firewall clearance issues. Exhaust clearances are great and steering column will not be in the way of anything.
How does it look?
Our Chevy engine/trans combo weigh about the same as the flathead, so ride height is pretty much the same. The drivetrain dimensions are very similar, but remember that the radiator configuration is different with a Chevy. There should be no height issues as the Ford's hood is very stout and tall.
Final preparation
Once mock engine and trans are removed, we took the time to sand down the brush painted engine compartment. We did some minor bodywork around welded holes and small dents. Again, it all depends on what you want your finished product to look like. Use a good wax and grease remover for a final wipe down. We chose to put a coat of primer prior to applying two coats of a satin black finish. This will allow the focus to be on the engine, and also keeps with the factory look.
Engine and trans paint Since we are painting, now is the perfect time to paint your engine and trans. Again, we chose the factory lead sled look and painted the engine a dark green while leaving the trans a satin black as well. Our motor was brand new so we took the time to clean and prep prior to painting. Same with the trans. If you do not have a paint booth, allow a good day or two for the paint to dry sufficiently. Don't rush this part as it will just ruin the final product you worked so hard to achieve.
Next time: we assemble the engine and trans and in it goes!
