A '64 XL 4-door hardtop is a pretty cool car. They weren't very common. Your 352-4V is a decent runner that ran fine on low octane regular fuel. They didn't get very good mileage but only the V-Dub bug-nuts cared about that gas mileage stuff back then. Okay, there were Corvair nuts too. And 144 c.i. Falcon fools.
We thought that premium ethyl would never quit flowing. And then it was 1974.........
But you can build that 352 into a strong runner for your '64 XL. A modern cam & kit, An Edelbrock Performer 390, a 600 CFM carb, an electronic ignition,a set of headers and there you go. Maybe keep your eyes open for a 390 to build. But you can perk that 352 right up.
Hey Idaho Steve, tell him how to make a 352 pull a '64 through the quarter in low 14's. |
