My brothers father inlaw has one in his 64 Falcon. He put in a Mustang II front suspension to get rid of the shock towers, it won't fit between the stock shock towers.
1965 Mercury Cyclone former drag car, 1971 Boss 351 engine, 4 speed, ladder bars, etc. Now returned to a street car.

Knew a guy that had a 429 in a 64 falcon with a straight axle in the front.That was a tight fit for sure.
