i was wondering what the biggest hemi motor was that you were able to put into a centura without an engeneers cert.
Also are you able to change the gauges in the dash around, because they are in an annoying spot they go from left to right: tacho , speedo , temp and feul , clock. i want it to go from left to right: clock , temp/feul , spedo , tacho any help is thanked |

265 will bolt straight in and is a powerhouse in a centura. they're only 900kg and made of gladwrap and condoms.
with the dash, you might need to pull it out and have a look...perhaps do some creative wiring. my biggest bitch was the stupid left handed indicater on the same side as the wipers

ive seen plenty fo centura's with 360's and 318's in them and there wasnt a great deal of work too put them in.
but work the hell out of a 265 and put a set of tripples on the side and your in for a wild ride pretty sure you dont need the engineers for the 265 but the 318 you would need too upgrade brakes and suspension. but if you did that you should be right for putting in a 318 atleast. ian |

Centura's came with 265's so no need for engineers. Mate of mine hade one that was well warmed up with a 4 speed, 650 holly, big cam, etc and the thing scared the crap out of me
