RE:worth?

Lou, I'm not disputing that a 360 horse 352 was available in the '60 bird. I'm just trying to learn and document the facts.

You want the value. Please provide answers to these questions:

The 'bird's main fuel line size? Is it 5/16" or 3/8"

Front Brake drum width?

These things matter because Ford was being very careful to re enter the performance field after being out for two full years with a fully integrated performance package.

The engine:

intake, aluminum or not?
carburetor? Holley with a '60 part #?
dual point distributor?
solid lifters?

All of these parts must be there to lend credibility and value to your high performance 352.

VIN# specifically the 5th unit in?

I firmly believe that a few '60 Thunderbirds were built with the 300 horse 352-4V and a stickshift and overdrive.

The cars that were built with the 360 HP engine were built on special order on a very limited basis in '60. A DSO designation of PAO on the build sheet indicates that the vehicle was built on days when all regular production was caught up.

To find out now after years of research that 360 horse 352 HiPo '60 Thunderbirds were built would be a wonderful revelation and I want to do all that I can to support you.

BTW, there's a standard bore B9A block right now on eBay for starting bid of $175.
This thread, so far...
