Looks like the driveshaft is a bit too short.
The 440 is a good engine. My 69 RoadRunner that I used to have but sold when I was young and dumb
, ran great. 3 Holley 2bbls and a Hemi 4 speed with 3.91 gears. Good times.

Maybe could have saved a few bucks on the mandatory chrome valve covers, and bought some gaskets, and seals to plug up all the leaks. Man that thing has more oil on the outside of the engine, and trans than the inside. Guess those parts won't rust that way.

OMG!!!!! and I thought mine was junk!!! lol, great idea, I dont really like non-Ford powered Fords, but at least u didnt do like everyone else who does a swap and put a small or big block chevy in it.......so u get half a kudo for creativity but not the other half cuz it isnt Ford powered
