Hi Tom not everyone on this site likes Chevy's, as a former Chevy rep I can tell you from experience. I'm putting a 327 Chev in my P-15 with a Muncie 4 speed and a 56 Chevy rear end and a 57 Chev gas tank. I figure it's my car and I'll enjoy it my way. I don't build cars for other people's likes only my own. I'm using an Aluminum radiator with electric fan. Clutch linkage is a challange and an automatic would be an much less work but not as much fun. I have a friend who is putting a 55 Dodge Hemi in his 47 business coupe with a GM 200 r4 tranny behind it with Ford rear axle. I had to cut the rear transmission mount out and fabricate a new cross mount for the tranny. Not a big deal and you will probably have to do this for most V8 swaps. Let me know what information your looking for since I don't know your skill set, but make your car the way you want it. E-mail me anytime with questions, I may not be the smartest guy around but I'll do my best to help you with your project that's what this site is all about.  You can ask me about my 30 Model A with my "Packard" motor too.
