Ford v8 engine bay pics and info

Looking for some pictures of the engine bays with a small block ford in them. I am currently swapping one in and I would like to see some pics.

Also, could you post whether or not you had to mod your firewall, install a body lift etc.

Thanks

 

No firewall mods, no body lifts but I did add 2" between the fenders and tub(I'm running an auto). It's best to run either a early Bronco or other rear sump oilpan.

 

did you add length to the hood as well?

 

Nope, it's hard to see but I used a piece of 1 1/4" angle iron to move the hood forward slightly. The hood fit great with no mods and the gap at the rear lets a lot of heat out. Here are a few pics.

 

Real Purty, that is!

 

Thanks

 

You have an AC compressor on there??

 

Yep, the compressor is for the suspension among other things.
