I've seen a sweet 69 Camaro running a Ford. I believe it was a 302.


That would be odd. I wish my 69 came with the 302. That was the Z-28 model it came from a 327 block with a 283 crank. I have the 307 (283 block/327 crank) Did you see the engine? Are you sure that's not what it was?

PS: Chevy made a 302, also.

You're right guy's, GM was made a 302 at the end of 60's in a Chevrolet division, I completely forget it, But I don't guess it's a chevy 302 on this fox car (the GM 302 is extremely rare)...

Couple of blocks have the same CI in Ford and others such as:

360 Ford truck (390 based) and 360 Chryco 318 based.
427-428-429 Ford's, Gm made a 427 (454) ect....

I found a lot more bizarre cubic inches on My old "motors auto repairs" manuals, that's curious to re-see!!!

While I wouldn't drop a 350 into my car, I'd stick an LS1/2/6/7  and T56 into it in a heartbeat if I had one. Chevies are Chevies and Fords are Fords, but horsepower is horsepower, too. The only reason I'm going with a 351 is because I have one.

I wouldn't stick a Chevy engine into a '69 Boss 429 or anything else worth money, but a dime-a-dozen mid 80's T-Bird that to most people are worth about $200 in s metal? Oh yeah.

I personaly liked chevy DZ-302 with the crosram manifold. It was susposed to keep up with the Boss's in Trans Am racing.

A cat is a CAT and a dog is a DOG, putting a chevy engine in a Ford or inverse is like putting a '88 TC nose on a 83 Bird, it;s fit but feel bad to see...

the LS1 is one of the most bad ass motors ever, but just doesn't seem right in a ford. Would be fun to drive though. I'm on ls1tech.com and LS1s in fox bodies are nothing new, but just wrong

But one thing I don't think I've ever seen, is a Chevy of any kind running a Ford motor.  That must be way more wrong to them than Ford people putting a GM motor in a Ford.

Eric used to have a pic of a mid 70's Corvette with a 460 in it on CoolCats

Its a hell of alot easier to build a small block chevy than it is a ford. End of story


Yeah, Anybody can build a chevy, It takes a real man to build a Ford!

Somebody should be kicked in the head for doing that to that car!

I remember that thread. Lets put a Ford motor into one of Chevy's most prized cars, the '69 Camaro. That was great.
