    @dumprat thanks for the picture and is that firewall cut at all. That motor looks perfect in there. Oh man a 34 truck with a desoto sounds awesome and kick my self in the butt for not buying one in MI a few years back. Pictures?

    @continentaljohn the firewall is just trimmed about an inch where it bumps out at the top of the toe board.
    I think a car firewall sits back a touch and is more flat but I'm not sure. Mine is stashed right now.
    I used a Chevy waterpump and the hot heads adapter, it shaves a couple inches off the front. Makes it all fit better but it sucks having to run an electric fuel pump.

    here's my 330 DeSoto in my 34, the firewall is back 2" , I shortened the wire covers so that just valve cover peeped through the hood sides
