Post big block swap?

I don suppose there's any way to fit a big block 400 out of a 1976 ford LTD into a B2, is there? I'm thinking no, but thought I'd check anyway.

Where there's a will there's a way! Some grease, a shoehorn, a torch...
Stuffing that 351M400 into a BII would be a major project to include major sheetmetal reworking/removal, suspension mods for the weight, etc, etc. More headache than it's worth IMHO. The 302 is a squeeze and it's a small block.

i agree with deerwchr anything is possible if you have the want tools and time not to mention money if you can put a 400 into a chevy monza or a 454 into a chevy chevette then why not a 400 into a b2 just think of it this way it would probably be a 1 of a kind and the badest b2 on the block course on the other hand you might want to keep a full stock of tires on hand
