Engine swap- Slant 6 to V8

Attn Mods: If this doesn't belong here, move it to the appropriate place. Thanks!!



So we brought home a parts car tonight that I am pulling the engine from to go in another car for my friend. No brakes but it runs.

Well we hook a chain to the suspension and I tell my friend to back it off the trailer. Chain comes loose and he is headed downhill, in reverse, with no brakes, FAST. :ROFLMAO:



He turns the wheel and hits a tree to stop the car. No problem.

I take my truck, pull the car back up, and disconnect. He now has the car running so he is going to drive it on up the hill to the garage. He goes to put it in drive but doesn't get it in gear in time before he goes back down the hill and hits the tree again.

I am laying on the ground laughing at him. My wife heard me all the way in the house.





Here is a picture of the car after I got it in the garage and the engine I am pulling.

318 engine is going to be cleaned and freshened up to go in a 71 Dart he has that is currently a 6 cylinder car. I will post pics as we go along.

The Dart is a clean little car that is going to be a driver. Just adding the cleaned up V8, painting the firewall, dual exhaust, rebuilding the front suspension and, of course, swapping in the V8 K frame.
