Arent you afraif your car will be nose heavy ?
I am also in the middle of putting a V8 lump in the front of my Sierra XR4X4, with the cologne V6 the car has a awfully heavy nose, the understeer is acting really badly..
You are installing a big iron Ford V8 in the place of a already heavy engine... are you prepared the car will handle really bad ?
Maybe you should consider a lighter rover V8 engine or go a little more modern, BMW, MB, Nissan, Toyota. I choose Toyota, after some lightening i have a 166kg engine insted of the stock 270kg of old cologne iron rust. I am starting with 280bhp stock, ready to be blown or revved hard for much more...
