Does not matter, the staff will delete this thread if they see it. Modern ch***is swaps are not allowed and have been getting deleted very quickly....in case you don't know where your thread went. .
A lot of early 50's chevrolet ch***is will fit like they were made for it . Look for 52's in particular. (what sarcasm ? )
Serious suggestion to your friend: There are literally dozens of guys here who know exactly how to upgrade those Chevys, from major changes, to many that are so simple and pretty easy. They went through all the hurdles and found the best ways to make these cars good for todays speeds
'52 hardtops, and convertibles, had a different frame than the coupes, 2 or 4 dr sedans/fleetlines. So some of the suggestions may not fit without some modifications. Art Morrison makes a frame for hardtops, expensive though but well worth it.
