429 Swap (didnt know where to post this)
 
I got ahold of a working...
completely working 429...
for little to nothing...
and now i am looking to drop it into an ultra lite Ford.

i don't wanna put it into a Mustang...
because the car will be put into various haphazard situations...
that could potentially damage the body.

so i was looking at ultra light cars...
What could it be packed into with little modification?
(i'd hate to have to weld a mustang front onto an old escort body)

ANy suggestions on cars?
