: Just because its free doesnt mean you should use it(8.8), the nine would be my choice but a beefed up eight should last a while.
LOOK LOOK LOOK. THERES A LOT OF WIND GOING ON HERE ABOUT WHAT YOU WANT TO DO WITH THE PARTS YOU HAVE. UNLESS YOU HAVE A WELL EQUIPED SHOP, MONEY BUY AND ENOUGH KNOWHOW, I FEEL YOUR IN FOR A HASSLE. FIRST OFF YOU CANNOT PUT A 351 IN AS IT IS ABOUT AN 2 INCHES WIDER. YOU WILL HAVE NO ROOM FOR ANY TYPE OF EXHUST HEADER WITHOUT CUTTING AWAY THE TOWER AND REINFORCING IT. NEXT OPTION IN REPLACING THE FRONT END WITH A MUSTANG 2 ASSEMBLEY. REAR END,,GO WITH AN 8" BOLT IN POSI AND GEARS OF CHOICE. THEY HAVE 5 LUGS AND WILL GIVE GOOD SERVICE UNLESS YOUR GOING TO DO A LOT OF DRAGGING WITH WIDE HI GRIP SLICKS. EVERY THING ELSE IS PRETTY MUCH BOLT IN. COME DOWN TO EARTH AND THINK ABOUT WHAT YOUR DOING.
