John,

Have you ever seen an FE motor in fox chassis, not a pretty sight. I'm a header builder and I would not envy the poor guy who would have to attempt that project. Fairlanes look cooler anyway....

You are correct about the Fairlane FE motor fit. 'Slip Fit' is the correct term, you simply smear grease on the shock towers and 'slip' it in. The trick is finding someone with long skinny fingers to start the header bolts.
