RE: Interceptor Special it is...
By Mike McQuesten - 10/09/2001 11:48:43 PM; IP 63.50.107.106
I sincerely apologize about my mis labeling the early 332/352s as "Police" Interceptor. I even got up from this computer and walked with flashlight to the back portion of my property where I'm allowed to keep my little bone yard. That's where the '58 Country Sedan is with the 352 4V Interceptor Special. Which is exactly what it says on the glove box emblem and on the air cleaner.

I do appreciate the response from all of you about some of these FE things I've been wondering about. I found both pieces that Dave scanned very interesting. Especially the second piece that makes reference to the machined combustion chambers and to the efficiency of the new design where the heads are solidly joined by a rugged(you got a be a rugged dude to lift that hummer off that's for sure and then to put it back on .....)one piece manifold. This new manifold Zooms fuel-air mixture....." I loved that part. I may have to memorize those lines to spout off to guys who just don't get it. Through eight expressways.....

And thanks Mel, I do appreciate your thoughts, comments and your short lived conversion to Pontiacs. Which I fully understand why you made the change at that time.

Travis, your points are why restoring the '60 HP car I have is for me a labor of Total Performance enthusiasm.

Shoe, you've got some great literature. Thanks again for taking the time to share with us. I 've really enjoyed the industrial/irrigation/marine threads too.
