Project "Chihuahua" '65 Formula S Restoration "Estilo Mexicano"
Update: "Test Fit" the motor to verify the oil pan change to the "394" would not bump the K member and would provide the proper relief necessary for the steering link. Also wanted to double check to make sure the motor mounts and brackets were fixed in the right orientation. As far as I can tell, the 394 oil pan is the same shape as the unmarked factory '65 273 oil pan. The later 318 pan that the previous owner used had a conflict in clearance with the steering link (was missing a clearance relief).
