    I welded them on, but a 53 pontiac has a different front end and frame, my buddy has a 53 2dr hardtop poncho and the easiest way to do a v8 was to stub it!!! but there was someone on here that said that originally the 53 pontiacs were designed for a v8.

    yeah I heard that as well about the v8 but I cant see it working, at least not with the way this front end is set up. I don't want to hijack your thread, so I will quit commenting about my pontiac...you should throw up a video of the car running.
