Thanks Mike, i got the engine installed today, and the clutch all hooked up.It wasnt as bad as i thought. I am not going to run the original fan, but am going to install an electric fan with a thermostat. If new cars can work with this i guess the 48 should work ok.I need to lower my trans mount a bit, as the tailshaft is to close to the floor pan, and i think my u-joint will hit. I hope this does not put to much of an angle on my engine. No one could tell me what angle the engine should sit at.I was told that a 71 Nova rear end is the same dimension as thr 48, so i might check that out. Im sur i will have more questions later. Thanks for everyones help.
