Newbie with a 70 coronet

[Nicknet]

New here great site been cruising through last few days. I'm working on the big block swap. 318 to 400. I've had the car since 2001 it was my grandmothers car I grew up around it she bought from dealer.

I put in a photo of my latest creation have some time off work so I built an engine test stand. That's a rv 440 on the stand not what I'm running in the coronet.

Reprint one day but not anytime soon. First I'll let the big block shake the bondo off the passenger side quarter panel, grandma damage.

Thanks for the warm welcome nice convertible 70 coronets I have always liked red on coronets. I'm going to miss my 318/904 20mpg's thinking one day I'll build it and have a second engine/tranny/driveline to swap back and forth.
