Sounds like a cool build up. The only thing crazier i can think of is i saw one in a '49 Ford once and it even ran 13s.

Im getting ready to put a 2.3 turbo and auto in a 32 Ford Panel Delivery for a friend of mine. Seems these are becoming really popular swaps!

(draggin50) I've thought of putting one in a model A also. I wasn't sure if there is enough room to put the hood sides on though.
2000GT has one for sale. Listed in cars/rolling chassis section, maybe buy car and engine then sell car.

2000gt doesn't have that motor anymore...I bought it a few days ago for my coupe...but there was one for sale without the the turbo and manifold on here...and I have the turbo and intercooler for sale...

Im not real sure on how the hood sides are going to fit. My Model A isnt running and hood but with a windsor it does appear that it would fit so... If it works in the 32 it should in the A.
