A small-block Ford is longer and narrower, not as good a fit. You rarely see a 260, 289 or 302 in a '30s Ford, they simply are too long.

About Us

The PY Online Forums is the largest online gathering of Pontiac enthusiasts anywhere in the world. Founded in 1991, it was also the first online forum for people to gather and talk about their Pontiacs. Since then, it has become the mecca of Pontiac technical data and knowledge that no other place can surpass.
