had my 2014 for over two years now, and finally got around to checking balance on the tires. ....the fronts were good. passenger rear needed 3/4 ounce.
driver rear had 9 1/2 ounce of weights on it. pulled them off and gave it a spin, only had to add 1/2 ounce. so the vibration i had was because some dipstick put 9 ounces too much weight on the tire.
took it up to 75 and no more vibration in the drive line.

I'll put some thought into it
My buddy Stan just offered me a 6.8 out of a 07 with 50,000 miles on it. Has a torque 5 behind it
I'll have to see if it fits under the hood.
Think I can keep rubber on the rear tires with a 6.8?

6.8 won't fit in the falcon.
Tried, couldn't fit it in even with the heidts front end
Plus the hood wouldn't bolt on or close, sat on top the intake 4" above the fender.
I ended up putting a 4.6 in there.
I think it's gonna fit in the Edsel !!!!!!
I'm betting a little boxing on the frame tho.
Remember when I put the big block in the vega wagon, and popped the back windows out down at the track?
