351 in a triton

[GS608]

hey fellas just throwing some ideas around in my head, would a 351c fit into the tritons bay? also if i did end up putting it in what sort of things would need updating?
other ideas would be a evo engine, or rb30

I think the 3.8L commo engine goes in the older model ( like 1998 )

thanks mate for the links i'll deff be checking it out, seems pretty reasonable as well, price wise, just gotta find a cheap 3.8 and T5

cuy the clevo and give it a go, if it doesnt work, buy a cortina shell and drop it in that!

It sounds like a waste of a perfectly good 351 to me!

i think someone has posted 351 measurements on here before, can't seem to find them now though.

Just measure it all up and you will know.

The evo engine would fit straight in but would require mods due to spinning it around.

You could always go a 351 windsor?

My cousin's got a Triton (not sure what year, late 80's, early 90's) with a turbo RB20 in it. I know he went to a lot of effort getting it in, including making up a custom radiator and rebuilding half the front of the car to fit it all in, aswell as the smaller jobs like building new engine mounts and whatnot. He's a boiler maker/welder so he did it all himself, but if you were gonna pay someone to do the work, it all sounds somewhat costly.

why not put an injected 5.0 in it? that would be plenty man.... you can crack 200+rwkw out of them... quite easily!

ive had a look around, might end up just putting a turbo on the 4G64, apparently its the same motor used in the US Spyder but mounted differently for FWD

They'd be a body over chassis car, so with enough cutting and welding you'd be able to fit anything... Some of those turbo diesels are big units too, should be room for a clevo...
