Take it this project died? Anyone seen a successful LS transplant into a 64-66 Mustang without eliminating the shock towers?

Honestly, you get soooo much more room w/o the shock towers. It's worth the upgrade cost for the front clip. My Maverick has the RCMotorsports front clip, it was ~ $2500 with coil-overs, rack & pinion, and 11" disc brakes...

Thanks, Bob! For cryker, here's an engine bay pic showing how much more room is available without the towers...

Thanks S10xGN

I've been thinking about trying to do a very budget oriented 5.3 swap into a 64-66 Mustang and swaping the Kmember to eliminate the shock towers is more involved than I want to do right now. I've had the idea for a while and was hoping someone else had executed on it by now.
