Re: What's keeping me from working on my GAL

Well, I wish these guys (and their boyfriends, lol!) the best of luck!

There's ALWAYS a bunch of stuff that's never accounted for that gets in the way. I HOPE these guys have fairly complete parts cars to work with!

I swapped a 460 into a 1973 Ford LTD that came with a 400 for my brother when I was in high school. I swear, for two engines that had the same bellhousing pattern, Ford made it as hard as possible to swap engines! Pretty much everything that could have been different... WAS. Were talking about silly things like throttle cables, etc. It's a GOOD THING the local junkyard had a parts car, or that thing may have NEVER gotten finished!

Good Luck!
