    heads up...my buddy called the other day and asked if I knew anyone that had a 365 caddy motor...he just found a 1958 3x2 intake with original carbs. PM me for his number.

    My 49 ford has a 331 caddy in it and I have a 390 tri-power from a 59 eldo. I have no idea what I'm going to put it in, But what ever it is will be fun afterwards! LOL!

    Gary, the Caddy fills the 'T' engine bay beautifully! The SBF really doesn't do the trick.

    I know you're joking...but...

    The only reason I didn't is because they're supposed to be rebuilt ready to run. If they're not, they're getting dipped too. :D

    lol, I've got the original 390 in my '62 coupe, does that still count? looks like *** right now b/c it's been in paint for the last few months and it's nice and dusty, or else I'd post up some pics. I was looking for a 3x2 setup, but I'd run into clearance issues
