Granada spindle swap

Granada spindle swap

Thanks for all the feedback I got concerning the Granada swap.

I found a guy who is pulling the 302 from a '76 Granada (80K miles) and
offered me the rest of the car for $100. I figured if it has a V8 then
it should have the 11" front disks - is this correct?

Also, the owner says the car has an 8" hogshead rearend, as opposed to
later models that had clips, or something like that. I'm ignorant to
all this - can someone tell me what a hogshead is, and will this make a
good rear end for my '68 (302)? He wasn't sure of gear ratio, anybody
know what a Granada typically has?

Thanks, 
Carl
