You want to put a 164's nose on a 240? Hmm, that might be interesting. You'd have more length (about 10 inches if I recall correctly), and more width (for the engine), too, because it doesn't have the towers on each side that are associated with a MacPherson Strut front suspension -- the 164 has an old-fashioned double wishbone -- along with easier-to-replace ordinary shocks that you could select for the extra weight of the V-8.

Might be an interesting idea.
