The ubiquitous SBC. Seen everywhere, in everything. I once made a standing offer at the local cruise-in, $100 to the owner of a Chevy with a Ford engine. Never had to pay off.

I guess the owner couldn't decide if he wanted a Chevy or a Ford. So he got both in one car. Regardless, ugh!

I see alot of those tbuckets with SBCs. I don't like it. Cheap unfaithful bastards.

I've even seen a Mustang with a 350 in it. And a Corvette with Cobra R wheels.

My other toy is a old Ford hot rod truck. I'm very active on a ford site, and if you have a Ford truck with a Chevy engine, your just not welcome. My truck is a 61 Ford Uni big window, with a 67 Mustang GT running gear, yep a big block in an old truck.

Several years ago, in Car Craft or something of that ilk, a dude was building a late 60s Camaro with a Ford 460 in it... different, to say the least. Nice looking job, too... very nice...

I'm not a fan of dropping a foriegn mill in a different make auto... I ain't crazy about the colors... it is truly dated, but I can't say it is bad.
