thread ressurection, anyone heard or seen of a caddy 472/500 stuffed in a fbody? seems like it may be a little easier with the distributor up front, and being a little shorter lenghtwise then a bbc

in the caddy the distributor is up front so its a bonus and has a really low profile intake, stock anyway, top of carb is level with valve covers. motor mounts are up front. im thinking it could be done. i would just run a carb. headers would be the major bitch of this deal.
