You should check the archives....Theres a lot of stuff you gotta do to retro that 351 in the mav. You should be able to find everything you need in the archives.
: i just got my comet a lil while ago and ran it out at keystone down the 1/4 mile and it pulled a 19.6 with its 200 straight 6 bone stock, but thats just not good enough for me, being the slowest at the track, so i am plannin on droppin in a 351W, but i need help as to what i'd need for the job(springs, mounts, etc...) and where could i get them from? i am also looking for tan buckets and a trunk lid from either maverick or comet and a comet hood, if you know where i can get a grabber hood and grill that'll work too, i linked our page if you wanted to see my comet, and how good of shape it is with only 51,000 original miles, i bought it off of an older lady who had it garaged all of its life, so if you could help me out it will be greatly apreciated, thank you
