– that is the question:
Whether 'tis nobler in the rear to suffer
The weight and width of outrageous block size..."
So... I'm in the throes of deciding what motor to put into a Mk II. Other than weight and cost can anyone who's been there tell me all the downsides of putting in an FE? I know it's wider and longer than a Windsor, but what exactly does that mean for me as the owner, installer and driver?
Also, anyone know the cost of the FE parts kit? Dave at SPF didn't know and doubted that they would swap with me for the 351 kit (which is what I have). If it's all about exhaust, where else can I get an FE bundle of snakes? What about engine mounts?
