putting a 440 engine into a Ford Escort. Not knocking Ford Escorts, as I owned one, but you *know* its gonna get shaky on the turns, before you even get behind the wheel. The Escort just wasn’t built for it, no matter how you modify it.

Well, you can get a 302 version/kit for the Ford Focus (Escort): www.ford-v8-focus.com

Maybe you would have had better results using a Ford 427 or 460 instead of a Chrysler engine.

That would be a blast. Get some relatively quiet mufflers and go huntin'. Talk about a sleeper.
