Galaxie 500: info and ideas please?

By Harry - 09/11/2002 6:47:23 PM; IP 12.241.212.19

I have a '67 Galaxie 500, with a FE 390, and a C6. I have been toying with the idea of geting a new-to-me (or completely new, if i find some money) block, or modifying my current one. Any suggustions (new blocks, boar/stroke kits, pistons, heads, exhaust, carb etc...). Also, is there any way to convert this to a manual, I have a front bench seat, so I would probably have to use a tree shifter, but has it been done, and is there any good way to convert it?
Did the Galaxies ever come with a 9" rear, or a LSD?
The car is completely stock at the moment, asside from some carpeting which i bought after market to fix the peg leg holes that the origional driver left for me.

thanks in advance
