Thanks guys for all the info. What I'm hearing is the length of whichever engine I choose, SBC or SBF, is the issue. For the Ford Flat head V8 I...
Thank you all for taking the time to respond. Please help clarify something I don't understand. Are there boundaries within what is...
Thank you
Yes, I was. Isn't there a short water pump available? I don't want another flat head, which engine would fit the best: 302, 327, 350, 383, 427...
Looking at the Smeding 363 Cruiser for my 34. It's smaller than the SBC's, and has the distributor in front rather than at the rear. Anyone have...
Wow, nice looking car. I spoke with TCI yesterday, and sent pictures - they know its a full fender, Henry steel car. I'm going to remove the...
Looking at the TCI website: 33-34 Ford Dropped Front Axle, 4 Link Rearend, there are several options for the front axle which seem pretty...

Thanks Charlie, this car is currently registered and driving on its stock frame.
I did; but how many times have you asked a sales person if something will work only to get it home and find out it doesn't? I was hoping to hear...
Only if I can do it by simply lifting the body off the stock frame and dropping it onto the TCI frame. I'll keep the stock setup in the barn so...
Looking at a new build using a TCI frame and a stock 34 roadster body, full-fenders. Engine will be a small block chevy - nothing exotic, manual...
Thanks, that helps. Right now the big question is can I do this swap without any major modifications to the frame or body. It's not the work,...
Thanks, I've read a couple articles on the Internet - the 302 might be too long. In the early 70's I had a 33 Ford pickup with a 265 and a...
The Ford flathead V8 in my 34 roadster has suffered a catastrophic failure and I'm considering replacing it with a more modern 302. I want to...
