My 1950 3 speed manual is not a pleasure to drive......I am looking at dropping in the ford 302 EFI & BTR auto drive train ( and of course loosing the torque tube setup ) .Just now checking the weight of the 263 at a eye watering 750 lb ( did I really read that right ) plus trans makes this seem even more sense. Does anyone have any helpful information on this to help with a possible change. I already have a 1950 with a GM 305/700r setup on a G platform but this time I want to keep the original chassis. Why a ford you ask, only because I can buy an entire car with only 165000 klms for $1000. thanks for any help on this.
