No, the '66 Cyclone was lighter. It was an original S code car and it weighed in at 3560 lbs. w/C6/428 & aluminum PI intake. I ran a couple of different cams in that car before transferring it to the '61 Starliner. All four cams I ran in the CJ were reasonably mild. All were decent on the street and worked okay on the strip.
I'd just say one more time that I think you'd be happier with the stock convertor especially with the 3.9 gears. The 3.5s are great all around. That's what I run in my '68 F100 w/390GT. I take trips in it quite often and the 3.50s are easy to live with at 70-75 mph. The 3.89s weren't annoying to me but may be to some. Years ago I lived regularly with 4.11s/4 speed/built 289. Of course, fuel consumption didn't matter to me then either. |
