OP = his f_rd engine. big mouth/big cubes, and that's about it.

maybe if a little nicer attitude was presented more help might be forthcoming. but come stomping in and start acting like a know it all will not help, guarenteed.

but what do i know? i only have a sixxer after all........

This was started by a ******* bashing me and HE prompted a responce. I really don't care what people think of the idea but theres no need for ANY of you to post just to run your mouth if you can't read MR. 6.5 Detroit. I didn't start this thread to be funny or start ****. This will be done this winter and any mouth with ***** is welcome to come to muncie IN. in spring and put there money where there mouth is. I'm sure all of you think it's funny when a fox body get's a 350ci. stuffed in it and i have done it but we all need to worry when car's from the 1920's thru 1950's get the wrong engine put in it. If you like CLASSIC cars with the wrong engine then YOU need kicked in the SACK!!!!!!!!! It's just a base V6 fourth gen. so get over it cause it is gettin a FORD 514ci. If you have stuffed a ford engine in a fourth gen. please respond! heres my toys >>>>>>

wow, if you call CNC's response bashing you, then you need to get out in the real world.

really, a nicer attitude would help you out a lot. if you can't see that, then good luck.

if you want to kick my sack, feel free to travel up here and try.

i don't take issue with your idea to stuff a bbf into a camaro. it is your car, and you can do what you want.

posting on here like you did, and then expecting everyone to kowtow to you is unrealistic.

good luck with that project, your going to need it.

for all the true Chevy lovers to gawk at it. Be sure to wear your protective cup!
I like your car but putting a ford engine in your car is when you need a protective cup! Do you think a 1923 T bucket with a SBC is cool? NO IT'S JUST STUPID! I'm going to find someone this winter that needs interior with seats and trim panels also someone that needs a great runnin series II, auto tranny, suspension, and a rear end!!! All of this will go to people that need those parts and I will be donating these all to different people and not the same person. These parts will help people that need it and all they need to do is show up and the parts will be free!! So please don't try to judge me.

First, thanks. Since a T-Bucket is just a partial representation of an original Model T (that came with a 4 cylinder putt-putt engine), putting a Ford V8 in it is no more "right" than putting in a stupid Chevy V8, other than being loyal to the brand. And let's face it, there's nothing "Ford" about a T-bucket except the resemblance. The reason the SBC is widely used in hot rods is because performance, and stock parts are plentiful and inexpensive. And don't tell anybody, but my Camaro has a Ford 9" under it. They did at least one thing well anyway.

The point being chevy in a ford! A 9" is just a well respected rear end and I still wish with all the cars I have that your car was one of them. This camaro almost got a rotary put in it so atleast I'm puttin an american engine in it.

That's just it. I think he's taking the Ford bashing seriously and personally. This is a Chevy/Camaro site, what else would you expect. We are a full service forum, and aim to please!
If that's what floats your boat, then happy sailing! Some guys may even take my car as sacrilege, to each their bone.
