I figured I tell you guys a little about my self and my car addictions. Obviously by my nic i am a Mopar fan , I love my Pontiacs and Chevy's too. I never really got into the Fords because growing up Mustangs were everywhere. It was like everyone had a 67 or 68 and they were always complaining about how a Mopar or Chevy kicked their butt at the drags.
I do automotive restoration and engine machine work for a living so I have seen the ins and outs of all the makes Including Honda. Out of all the cars I have redone The fords are usually the biggest pain in the axx when it comes time for numbers/date coded parts. Alot of people say Mopars are but I havent had much of a problem yet.(maby just lucky) If you really want a hard car to document try a 1970 elcamino ss. Gm was not very kind on build plate information.
If you want a easy car to build and Don't care about anything being date correct then do a Mustang or a Camaro. Hell you could order the hole car from a mag. LOL
I must give Ford credit with the 302 it is one of the best designed motors (factory built and mass produced) it is one tuff small block.
In my opion it is a toss up between the 350 chev and 340 mopar, I must say I have to lean to the sbc because the stopped the 340 in 73 and went 360(which came out in 70, not many people knew that) I like the 360 till its recent demise to crate motor only but the 350 chevy has also gone that route. Ill keep my mouth shut on big blocks or ill go on for hours lol
sorry didn't mean to start rambeling.
