Ken, you may regret posting this, I will need help I am sure. I think I got the right dimensions for locating the radiator centerline (13&quot; from the front spreader hole on the frame). We plan to locate the engine location today (all based on fan clearence to the edge of the thicker new hot rod radiator I got with the car, the previous owner gave me). then they can fabricate the engine mounts (which I have no clue yet on what they are thinking for that).

what worries me now is that old generator, will it hit the frame. should know soon.

Welcome to the world of Street Rodding.....where you don't expect anything to fit...But......If it does, you smile,If it doesn't ......you just see where it will fit and make it happen.......Enjoy......It's a wild ride, but when you are finished.....It's all yours as no two Street Rods are alike

I like the choice of the Lincoln engine. It has that 'big engine' sound to its name and will look great in there. &quot;What engine is in there?&quot; &quot;It's a Lincoln.&quot; Ford offered the Lincoln 430 in late-fifties squarebirds and it gave the car a muscular aura (even if it wasn't particularly muscular).
