engine placement?
Is there a guide to engine placement?
I have 2 '68 Chevy trucks. Both factory 327 trucks, both factory 4 speed trucks. The C10 swb has the motor in the forward position. The K20 4x4 has the motor in the rear position. I am fairly confident that both trucks a re original, as I know the history of both. Is there a guide to engine placement? I have searched a little bit, bot haven't found a definitive guide. No issues with either setup, just curious. -Russ |

Re: engine placement?
The K20 is placed in the rear to help with clearance of the oil pan and differential.
