ok, heres the scoop, 336 ci v/8, 152 h/p, you can get more than that out of a merc engine,125 hp stock, add dual carbs, dual pipes 100 over bore and aluminum heads and already you have more h/p, and the merc is #100 lighter and no problem getting parts, the 336 is a lincoln or big truck engine, the extra weight will kill the stock front end, i would check with some of your street rodder friend before i bought that engine, as some one else said, if it was a good idea you would see them in a lot of cars
