Mike, if I bought and maintained it there would be some disappointed kids around here when they split up their inheritance.

I have a ways to go figuring out the one I do own. But if you're going to let me pick one....probably a 72 340 4sp Demon

Just finishing my 1965 Impala 396/325HP I/SA car, I see 1965 was the only year the 396/425HP Hi-Po rectangular port motor was available in Impala and Corvette, NHRA refactor to 385 HP, 395 HP with the Edelbrock replacement head.

1966 and on the Hi-Po motor was the 427/425HP NHRA rated 435, 445. 396 only came in the 325HP version in full size Chevy's

SO.... my dream would be to build that motor for the car, it would be a natural D/S car, heavy E/S (4200 lbs) , using the aluminum Edelbrock heads maybe could be light enough for C/S !

I am assuming I could use a Automatic in the car now with that motor, but maybe put the Jerico in! 7500 RPM launches in the big ole Chevy! The car is built to run a stick like my 68 was.

Not too sure it would be competitive, but damn fun.

I have my dream car. I bought it when I was 13 and still race it today.

However is money was no object it would be fun to build a SS/AM 67 Fairlane. I Always loved watching Tom Huggins 69 Camaro AM car back in the 90's
