4bt in my 1941 Dodge Military or 1956 Plymouth?

THis is just for fun, wanted you hear youall's thoughts on the subject.
Should I put the 4bt into my 1941 Dodge Military or 1956 Plymouth Belvedere? The Belvedere still has it's original 277ci V8 that runs and the Military is currently engineless.

And save the Plymouth for when you find a 1957-58 392 Firepower. It will bolt right in.

Yea, I think it has to go in the truck. I used to have a 392 Hemi engine but sold it. I should be shot.

It's good to have friends like that! We may have to try get him to sell us a 392 in a year or so!

I say the 4bt goes in the old military dodge.

As for early Hemi's...Here's what mine looks like in the garage....1952 Chrysler 331 Hemi, not sure if it will end up in my 48 Desoto or not??
