- New to me 1972 coupe 302 with a c4 that will be swapped out soon for a 351 ho with a c6.
over all a solid car but needs alot
I would like to say hello and thank you in advance for all the help with new and old posts.
I picked up a 72 coupe with a 302 4brrl. and a c4 auto were a manual was. I am in the beginning stage of swapping the 5.0 for a 5.8w with a c6.
The coupe its self had some floor replacement done that is not great.
needs door adjustment along with new window rubber and seats.
Seams like the more I look the more bad I find.:shootself:. The dash power is another bad find, have to go through and get everything working. Need to check the heater core also but its probably bad.
The 5.0 was smoking and making some bad noise so I picked a 5.8 and c6 out of an old fire company f250 2x4. I think at this point I will take it to a machine shop and bore it 30 over and do a high torque low rpm cam and have them look at the heads also.
So at the end of the day this car is supposed to be a daily driver to get to work and around town. Any input to the build would be helpful and accepted. places to pick up parts seats, body ??. Hope fully the 5.8w is a good choice. Also ill try to get some pics in as I go.
Thanks again
