RE: 352s was great engines for crusiers.
By Nostrodomas - 08/21/2001 1:27:40 PM; IP 205.188.199.176
400 horses of a 352 is pushing it quite a ways past the envolope. Your 65 is a heavy car. If you want speed to go along with the tubbed rearend, then a motorsport 460 will make the cruiser fly. But, expect to spend as much as 20K for a complete engine/tranny/rearend and suspension combo. Now you have to ask yourself. Is the body that clean, do I have the cash, and will I enjoy the 7 miles to the gallon. If you answer no to any of the questions, then I just rebuild the 352 stock and enjoy the 65 as it was meant to be a slick cruiser with eye catching lines.
This thread, so far...
