Crate Motor Pure Stock

Ok... Decent response..
\When used Crate Motors...might not been the right word.

I see combinations 2v that coulda-shoulda had a 4V.
Figure a stock 4v manifold could be easily bolted on.
Replacing the 2v and move up a few classes.

Maybe Crate Motor was not the best way to start the conversation.

My intent was to consider doable combinations, or upgrade.
Still would have to meet all the other Pure Stock rules.

The advantage you already have existing engine data.
Plus how it would perform.
Would not want to see BB put into a car that came with a SB.

For example always thought Ford lost an opportunity to put a 4v on the Mavericks and Mustang II's.

Think it would be interesting installing a Corvette Triple or Dual Carb on a 350/255 using a stock PS cam.

A 409/425 in a 1969 Chevy...!!
Has to meet Pure Stock cam rules.

It would make things look interesting to the public who like to look at our rides.
