I think you're both right, Mike and Ray. I just can't stop myself from constantly thinking of new ways to prolong my project.
But you have a later A-body, right? So the 440 actually fit in it?
Ok, guess not. What IS the popmobile, actually?
I'd hate for it to be over.Why prolong it?
DO IT!!!! GO BIG OR GO HOME!Decisions, decisions, decisions.
Say, you've got a '66, Mike. What do you say to my idea - that no-one commented on, grumble, grumble - of going nuts and putting a 440 in it?
I'm going home!!DO IT!!!! GO BIG OR GO HOME!
This is why i just bit the bullet and got the GTS.......74 4 door se, came with a slant that Keith now has it, Went with a mid wild 440, had to go the Schumacher install kit with headers, new trans, subframe connectors, 4 wheel disk, track loc 3.55 and a bunch more. Install was a ***** with the power steering had to take the box off to get the header in. Spark plugs really suck to change on the pass side might drill holes next time. Then the fire. Have maybe 200 miles on it so far.

So was the front chassis actually any different between those years and 1974? I mean, did the R block fit any better in a 1969 than in a 1974?Only factory Big Block A body cars are 1967-1969
