Cdizzle Posted June 19, 2007 Author Report Share Posted June 19, 2007 time for a 350 swap Shit, I get 7 MPG in town... 350 wouldnt help that at all... Plus im not buying a new engine... that would be alot more money. I am going to rebuild this one, believe me I have though about putting one in though..

Big P Posted June 19, 2007 Report Share Posted June 19, 2007 a vortec v8 in that car should get you close to 20 mpg a properly built carberated motor could get you more. I had a 66 impala station wagon and i was getting 18 mpg with a gm crate motor and thats a fucking big car! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cdizzle Posted June 20, 2007 Author Report Share Posted June 20, 2007 Back in 59 they didnt have to worry about the price of gas, there for gas was no issue. FINALLY I got a break though, by buddy that helped me earlier with this car said that he could help me get hooked up with a engine rebuild for 1200, and he said that he would rebuild the tranny for me for free. Ill keep you all posted. Quote Damn Thiefs Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
