500 cubes

THis is what I am doing too! Towards this end I traded a car for a 78 Newport. Thereis a thread here about yanking the drivetrain but I wont go there,lol. In short I gained a car that had the 400 etc.

Im also clearing room for headers by removing the inner fenders completely and installing a 1 piece tilt nose. Room for headers is at a premium with A bodies and it just gets worse with the 400. Dont mean to rain on your parade or anything,but be ready for limited header selection.
