Way back when I was a pup. Guy I worked with bought one of the first new 262 V8 Monza's. I know we'd goof around after work, he could kick my little Pinto's @&$ at will. I had a couple simple mods, this kid knew nothing about cars. Except how to start it. I believe these little cars originally had five speeds, not sure?
Now, today, you could tie the frames. Build a killer transmission. Bullet proof rear end. On the surface, sounds like a good starting point. Have to put the combination to paper to see what it's potential is. Next up, finding heads, intake and carb for this engine?
If you know someone running the engine. Can't hurt to look into it,
