I like what 318 is trying to do, can it be done, sure, with the right setup certainly.
I will not throw stones or add my opinion on his quest.
He does what he does with what he has on his terms. :thumbsup:
Very good post. If a guy has patience, good deals can be found on parts.
I have 3 340 blocks and 2 of those were free from a friend who no longer has an interest in cars. The other, a complete 72 short block I got from a chevy guy for $200.
My son bought a complete 360 Mag last summer that had Mag R/T heads on it. That was the basis for the Mag build I posted a while back. The guy he got that from had bought a 65 mustang and was selling off his Mopar stuff. My son got some parts at yardsale prices and sold some of it making money on the deal. It was better than free.
When 318WR started his posts, that is the kind of stuff I thought he had in mind.... and what I was looking forward to.
