Shock tower patteren for 64

Does anyone have the patterens for the shock tower mod to put a FE in the 64 chassis? I`m building a clone and can do most of the work myself if I can get the patterens. Thanks Garry

Shock tower patteren for 64

I don't want to rain on your parade, but if I were doing another 64 I would get rid of the shock towers all together and put a new clip on. There really isn't enough room even with the mods, nothing is easy, headers are a nightmare, and a stick is a challenge. Just my 2 cents but I finished a 64 last year it had a 400 inch stroker motor ran like a funny car but was to tight headers hit everywhere. The added weight in the front made it almost impossible to align not enough caster no way to get it. Its impossible to get big tires under it even with a narrowed rear. It must be tubbed. So if I had my car back I would have put a 347 stroker everything would have been as the car was made originally, things would work like headers, clutch and hood. Well thats my take on 64 fairlanes do yourself a favor and research your project real good first. JMO[img]/phpBB/images/smiles/icon_frown.gif[/img]

Well I just finished putting a 521 in my 1963 Fairlane and GUESS WHAT.....I have to agree with you[img]/phpBB/images/smiles/icon_frown.gif[/img] BUT I Love my car and it really flies when it goes straight as an arrow. I guess you just have to do the swap to say you did one[img]/phpBB/images/smiles/icon_wink.gif[/img]
But man oh man having 725hp between those shock towers is awesome!!!! Always stirs up a conversation at the local cruizes and ain't too many people got one[img]/phpBB/images/smiles/icon_spin.gif[/img][img]/phpBB/images/smiles/icon_spin.gif[/img]

Hey Countrywi, I've got a '63 2 door sedan I need to do something with. I'm just curious how you got the big block in. Did you use Crites' stuff or use your own method?
