It would be no easier than installing a 302 but it's okay to "dare to be different". I have no problem with that...
: In all seriousness, I would like to know how hard it would be to "shoehorn" a 300 engine into a Maverick. After reading Craig Selvey's piece concerning a Maverick which ran 13's with this engine, I would like to know how hard it would be to install this engine into a Maverick. I would imagine that the principle "bugaboo" would deal with accomodating the rather ungainly height&length of this engine. Once these two factors are accomodated for, I would imagine that this conversion would be quite simple. I do hope that this will remain an informative discussion, as I do not wish to argue about the merits of this engine any more. My interest lies in finding out how to install one ina Maverick.
