Is the 48 ford 226 engine the same as a 48 Kaiser 226? Will the parts work?

Thank you very much. The pictures were very helpful.  I am now one step closer to getting her on the road.

My 48 does not have any of the linkages on the transmission connected. Where can I find a diagram for it. The clutch, shifter are not connected.

Thanks. Thats what I meant by cutting the top off. I meant that I want to make it a conevertable with a soft top. I dont want to make a lot of changes with the Kaiser. I think she is awsome. I am just wanting to give it a little newer engine that is easier to get parts for. I think that it would look great as a convertable, but I was wanting others Kaiser lovers opinion before I did so. I do not plan on making it a hot rod.

What kind of mods would it take to place the 302 in her?

I have a 48 Kaiser Special and am giving her a make over. It will have a 302 with 3 speed on the floor. I would like everyones thought on what they think about making it a convertable? Good idea or bad? Thanks

 I have a 48 Kaiser that I am redoing. I was thinking about putting a different frame under it,preferably a newer frame with didsc brakes and so on. I have a 302 with a 3 speed on the floor I am going to install so I would like to have a Ford frame if possible. does anyone know what frame will fit the Kaiser? Thanks
