New to scouts.
I have two scouts. I have a 1969 with a v8 and a 1965 with a i4.
The body is real bad on the 1969. The po already swapped the front and rear axles from the 1969 to the 1965. The 4cyl is locked up and I want to go ahead and swap the v8 over from the 1969.
I looked through the forums and read that a lot of work goes into this and people have been hacking away at the firewalls. Can I do this by just moving the radiator and the motor mount locations on the frame rails???
Has anyone put together a good thread on this?
I've previously owned a few 5.0 mustangs, and I read that the 302 swap could be easier and lighter. True?
