Has any one put a 360 into a fox body mustang? I use the mustang for racing and tired of breaking the trans. Or is there a bell housing that i can put on a 727 trans. Need some input. I do have a 5.9L magnum motor and a 727. Just wanted to see if any of you have done this or seen any one do this. Really dont want to cut up the car. The reason I using a ford is because it weighs 2500 pounds right now.

thanks

 

I've actually seen this done in a mag, (Hot Rod I think). Tons of room in the fox mustang for the motor, tranny might be a different story if thinking 727.
Ultrabell might make the bell adaptor. Google Ultra bell.

you should have read the topic about the guy putting the BB chevy into the dart swinger..... what ever happened to that guy?

 

I have a Shivvy 3/4 ton that is taking up my garage as we speak, waiting for the owner to come up with this "crate motor" for over a week now; tomorrow= a week since I pulled the old engine; meaning taht if MY shyt breaks I'm working on my own OUTSIDE in 20* temps. If he drags **** much longer on coming up with this engine, I have a 318 and 727 that will find its way in there to get the thing OUTTA HERE with. That said 350s are actually good for something; weight in my truck over the rear axle so I can drive it thru this winter slop! (with a 318 and 4 barrel under the hood)

 

do you know if there any links that i see pics at? does anyone know what the demetions are hight, width, and length?

 

dont have a link but here are some general measurements for a stock engine;
width of outside dimension of valve cover to valvecover: 20.5"
top of carb to bottom of pan (stock engine): 28"
mounting flange for fan to back of block: 23.5"
total width; outside measurement of exhaust manifolds: 25"
top of valve cover breather to bottom of oil pan: 29.5"
weight of engine: 550 lbs.
starter location: left side
