    Hi Hambers, I have a 32 Ford three window project , all Ford steel and original frame, I want to put in it a 346 cadillac engine, but I dont know if this is posible by the size engine and weight, do you see another car like this?

    I never realized the exhaust ports were out of the top like that.

    Kevin is on here I'm sure you could message him but original suspension should be fine. Hood would depend on how you run exhaust I suppose but otherwise engine width is fine. Do a search for Cadillac flathead and there is a thread of hot rods that have them.
