Default Too much power

A 23 T is way too short with a very high center of gravity. The 327 is already too much power for that architecture.

Just test drive it and try to go to wide open throttle from a dead stop and you’ll see what I mean.

That 1000 HP beast needs a well designed and built chassis and a little more weight wrapped around it with a roll cage.

But it is your decision to make. I only provide my opinion here as I made my living in the racing and hi performance industry for 32 years and have built and raced several vehicles over the years.

Good luck with it either way.

My buddy wants to sell me his 1923 Ford model T hot rod, it's already been retrofitted with chevy 327, new frame, brakes suspension etc.
