    I have a 1950 ford sedan with a flathead in it right now and I am wanting to swap that with a big block ford. I was just curious if this was possible and if it is how difficult it is to do.

    I was at a swapmeet in Texas when a 1950 Ford passenger car came in pulling a GOOSENECK trailer.

    (I have pictures)

    It had a 460 engine.
    Engine compartment was full but the hood closed ok.
    He said fenderwell headers were mandatory

    I saw a one a couple of years ago with a SOHC 427. Anything can be made to fit!
