Hi to all. Been into cars and/or bikes all my life. My son and I are going to put a 348 into our '30 5w coupe. This will be an ongoing project as money permits.
Have the car, and the engine is to be here Monday. I bought it from a private seller(not ebay) Although I grew up with 348s and 409s I don't know much about them I just didn't want to go with the same old small block in a street rod set up.

Thanks to all for the welcome. I'll post some pics next week. Just to give you a little heads up, the 30 is a bone stock, restored car. I know I'm going to hell for chopping up this one, but hey, you only go around once.
Thanks again, Pete

Pete, The 30 had over 70 good years. Now it is time to let her evolve. Bring her into the 21st century and make her look good.

If Boyd can butcher a 59 Chevy, then Fords are fair game!
