Folks Of Interest mark morton 54 merc

does any body know how much was taken out on the chop

 

3" according to this article: http://www.hotrod.com/articles/0808rc-1954-mercury-monterey/

 

I was always under the impression it was 3" in the front and 4.5 in the back.

 

Better resolution for better assuming...
I'm surprised Hotrod had such a small wee pic...
This one isn't very big either but better...er
​

 

I will ask the guy that chopped it and post the answer.

 

Sam, who chopped it, says 3 1/2” front with “a slight rake to the rear”.
