RE: and the 352HP?

Yes Nitro it was offered as a brand new high performance option for 1960. I have one. They're real. But really rare. It's my opinion that this package heralded the start of the Muscle Car era. This really pisses Pontiac afficianodos off. Why? Because where GM & Mopar were offering some great high horsepower engines in '60, they were still just plunking them into standard passenger car chassis with little improvement to things. The Ford engineers put together a 360 horse 352 that could be had only with a fully integrated package that included a HD differential, larger fuel line, brakes, springs, u-joints, etc. It was the start of Total Performance. It was the big block Ford that got the positive press that the 352 didn't get in '58 & '59. It was the HP352 that started the big block Ford legends.....before it was known as FE.
This thread, so far...
