I wanted to go oldschool on this one,so i decided 2 go with the 324 rocket,if any one has any tips or advice on installilation let me know.......
As I recall, if you use a stock Olds pan you need a "dropped" tie rod center link for pan clearance. There may be other relatively minor clearance issues, but I think that is the main one. Ray
what about mounting the engine - it is a front mount engine, the flatheads weren't. Is there an article out there or suggestions by others who may have done it?
You use a hurst style mount on this install and aside from pan clearance there is also a starter clearance issue as I recall. That said they along with the caddy were a popular swap into the old fords way back when. The starter issue is overcome with a starter swap from driver side to pass side.
