[QUOTE="oscgalis, post: 6281, member: 844"] I purchased a 843 Bobcat that someone pulled the original engine out of the installed a 350 Chevy in its place. When I first purchased it, it looked like a Frankenstein Monster! With a giant radiator sticking out of it’s engine compartment. Much to my surprise it runs and works great! Now I cut the Radiator out and the radiator mounts they welded onto the back and had a custom radiator made for the top of it. I also took the 350 water pump & pulleys off and replaced them with the ones off the 327 which are much shorter and don’t stick out as much. Now the engine does not sick out more than 4” at it’s widest point. I can reinstall the original Engine compartment door. Does any know if the “8” series door work? And Where can I pick up a good used door? Thanks, [/QUOTE]
