Default Looking for someone in particular....

G'day,

I am at the "no engine in the engine bay" stage of my 351W in to EB falcon conversion, and am in need of some advice from people who have done this conversion before.

I have not been able to track anyone down and was just wondering if anyone here knows someone who has done this and can put me on to them (or them on to me).

As far as I know there are only a few cars in the country which have had this conversion so it makes it kind of hard......

Any help would be GREATLY appreciated.

Thanks a lot,
Mike

I need to know which extractors they used and which sump they used.
Also engine mounts, crossmember and other little bits and pieces..... problems etc

Hey scoop i had a 351 clevo in my ea and i know of another guy who did the same thing if your motor is the same ( i think it is ) then most will fall into place i used the same 6cl 5 speed out of the same car couse the starter hits the steering and had to lower the engine mounts 40mm . i used standard exhaust that was all i could to get it to fit
and a o.m.v.l. gas kit it was ok but the clutch sliped all the time and i was to cheap to get a V8 box and clutch

You may find it hard to find someone as it's not a mod that been done alot. You will find that a custom sump and extractor will need to be made.
You will have to fit the block with heads and the get it measured or the items made on the car.
