Hi guys,
Been lurking for several weeks and checking out the rides you have. Awesome Stuff (IMG:style_emoticons/default/pray.gif)

I've got a 76 with a 2.0 that has to leave. Why? Well, I've been into VWs mainly dune buggies for years and have had a few T4s. I want some REAL power!

Hence the question- I'm NOT a chevy guy. Checking with my gearhead buddies brings a 340 mopar and a 5.0 fuelie ford up for sale/trade. Outside of the fact that the chevy has been used for years, what major problems do you see from your greater experience?

I saw someone was from Wyoming. I'm N of Cheyenne about an hour. No teeners 'round here!

Thanks, Kev

Here is a new rod simpson conversion kit - for a 911 for $500

The radiator is probably a different size than what you need and you would need to fab an engine mount, but the rest of the stuff is probably just right. You would also need to find out if the kit is for a 915 or 901 tranmission.
