He is using a 1962 small block 727. He changed the tail shaft from
a 1961 big block 727 to retain the emergency brake. Also mentioned
that the converter needed a small shim for better engagement in the
tranny. Fabricated motor mounts, it was dark down there, but it
looked like he retained the 5.7 mount insulators. I don't believe
there were any frame modifications, possibly cross member mods. It
was a sanitary looking installation. Looked like he used March
brackets for the alternator and accessories. I have a 2004 truck
5.7, I believe he also used a truck engine, but it was difficult to tell,
the engine is carbureted or at least has TBI. He was surrounded by
people so we had our conversation piecemeal.

Regarding the 300G hemi transplant - did he change transmission or leave
original? Any major frame, suspension... mods required?
I have 62 so I figure that would be similar to the G.
