Default Re: 337 Lincoln powered hot rods.

I don't know if this qualifies or not, but when I was in high school, a couple of guys I knew put a 337 Lincoln in a '53 Ford. They got it in, but couldn't get it to run. I got it going for them, but they never got it on the road. The engine was so heavy that the front suspension was constantly bottomed out, and they had modified the steering for clearance, and the car was virtually uncontrollable. These guys were a couple of "Bubba's", so their failure was more of a reflection on them rather than what they were trying to do.
