Re: English Ford Model Y
A friend has a German Y car, LH drive. He put a V8 60 in it. By all means use a crab
distributor, with some ingenuity it can be made to work WITHOUT an adapter....every
inch matters in this swap. He used the 60 trans and rear end.....shortening the torque tube and drive shaft and narrowing the track. '40 rear brakes and front discs and a
R&P from a rice burner. A lot of trouble with the stock steering box.....it was weak
to begin with and the exhaust heat caused it to bind up.
It look so docile until he started it up, a pair of steel packs....yikes.
