The point I was trying to make at the beginning of this thread, the 352 is not a bad engine it, just takes a bit more money to make it into a real performer and I felt that to start off with a 390 GT engine would be a big head start for a budget build-up. With enough money a 352 can be made to really haul a--, but to me, thats like starting a race a half lap behind the pack. If the car was going to be a matching number car and not tubbed or seriously modified, I would suggest that the original engine be stored and buy or build a 447" engine until he wanted to sell the car as "all original". This sounded like a cruiser on a budget with a lot of "show mods" that still wanted to have some decent acceleration.
This thread, so far...
