6 banger to 8 banger swap
Outstanding deal. I picked up my 68 for $3600. Ran it for a while on the 6 then traded my 78 nova (which I paid $1000) for an 84 stang. Just wanted the engine and crap out of it. I kinda got a nice deal cause after the swap, the guy I traded with was driving with a suspended license, got the car impounded, and never put it over in his name. He didnt have the money to pull it out so I got the car out of impound for $600 and sold it for $1200. Sold parts out of the 84 also... Another item of note on the swap. Take a look at the accelerator linkage and see if you need to pull the one (if it fits) out of the 69. My inline 6 had the linkage from the firewall to the carb on the passenger side where the V8 had the linkage on the driver side. Just one of the smaller headached I had to track down. Ended up having to fabricate a linkage to cable gas system though.
nice Ill have to look into that throttle lingage. Looks like im gona have to make my own as well.
Well im sure ill figure it out. I should have her ready before spring. as for the opther car the junkyard picked it up this morning. Good news is now everyones classic mustang is a little more rare.
