Excellent review there R. Just a very minor correction only because you seem to really give a damn)and that's a good thing)...the first real kick ass 360 horse FE was of 352 dimensions for '60. Then it was the 390 for '61 with the 375 horse hp and in April, '61, the tri power was an option that could be ordered that bumped the 375 horse to 401. That tri power option was placed in the trunk by the way. Dealer installed. The '62 390HP and later 406/405 got the three Holleys installed at the factory.
The '66/'67 Fairlanes are fabulous indeed. With any engine. But the W or R codes are the rarest. My personal preference would be.......a '67 Mercury Comet Cyclone R-code 427. Hmmm, I wonder who has one of those stashed in his garage? |
