    Has anyone ever dropped a ford 351w into a cj? I got a buddy who is asking me if it can be done.

    How much trouble, what was needed, etc, would be very helpful.

    TIA! I appreciate any help.

    I was toying with the idea of putting one (since I have a fresh one in my shop) in my 66, but I couldn't see anyway to fit it in except by putting on the longer fenders and hood of a later 5.

    My Chevy V8 swap was pretty easy...don't know how hard a Ford swap would be. Tell him to put a Chevy in it :)
