25,75 inches is a 34 Ford frame's frontal width by Wescott's. Question 1: Is the area from front crossmember to fireblock enough to lay a V-8 302 engine (Mustang) ? Question 2: Could any Hamber, please, PM me and sending the outer and inner dimensions of 34 Ford radiator cover? And how thick is it ? Thank you, guys.
A 302 should fit but I'd find a late model short water pump to give you more radiator clearance. I'm sure the Ford experts here will chime in with more details... have fun.
