Default Re: 72 Maverick

As someone said, the maverick will be tough in stock with the 2bbl which is why we went with Super Stock. We put a clone 289/210/210 motor in Jamie Schoenly's '72 Maverick here in D1 from spare parts lying around from my 289. It's not far under the index yet but it is a cool looking super stocker! I've never really looked into EFI combos, that's an idea..

The 2 bbl 302 is okay here during the winter months anyway.
I would suggest building it as a good 9" tire car, but then use a low rated EFI combo for Super Stock, where you can use a transbrake.
There is a nice one in Div 1 done similarly.

Robbie, call or write if you want
