They only built them with a small six located in a box between and half behind the front seats.



I crammed a totally built 351 in that box sort of like this:


It would lift the front wheels for 50 feet on launch and there was not much on the street that could touch it. Didn't turn worth shit though and since you were sitting slightly in front of the wheels it was a really weird feeling when you turned. Oh, and it was a two speed automatic!
