Hi. I am building a 1973 torino with a 514 and a 5 speed as well. i moved the engine back on my car 3" and lowered it 2". it was a piece of cake as long as you dont have air. but i have to make custom headers for it now. its only money i will get more somewere, someday. right know i am getting eady to send t off to my friends house so we can put a roll cage in it, i dont have a bender. going to replace the rear shocks with coil overs and remove the factory coils and replace the front coils with coil overs as well when i install my Bear brakes. would like to know if you have made any more progress recently? :shy:
