My dad gave me this car a few months back....1970.5 Falcon.....He has one and my little sister has one....My dad uses his as a race car and cruiser, 351C.....sister's is a driver, and her little show car, 302...Mine is the only one in the family that started life as a v8 car...when I got it the motor was missing, and we finally decided to take my moms left over parts from her torino build and put them into a block I have laying around.....

Welcome aaron! Thant's a nice body stile to be playing with! Are you staying with the 302 or are you going big block? Al

thank you..........My original plan was 351 then maybe stroke to 408....I picked up a small blcok c6 9" rear end...when I went to pick up the 351 and 460 the 351 ended up a 302...........
THe my mom stated rebuilding her 429(after 6k miles).....and offered up all her old parts to me...So I am going that route.....as long as I don't have to hurt the car(I want the option to go back to stock some day
