: In the classifieds of my local newspaper, some one was selling a rebuilt 429 cubic inch big block V-8 for 900 dollars. It needed head work, but thats about it I think. It also came with a C6 transmission. Unless I am mistaken, that engine is the same one they have in the old Shelby Cobra. I was just wondering if I could fit it inside my Maverick? If it could, then I would get it instead of the 5.0L Mustang engine. But it sounds a little crazy, and I'll need much better brakes.

You would have to get rid of the shock towers in order to get it to fit, pretty tough up-grade, as well as spendy. This sight can get you started but get ready to pay the pipper. www.flosc.net/rcmotorsports/rc2.htm
