Maybe a 360, purple cam..., I'm sure it "gets along o.k." sounds like a neat toy. I had a MKVII LSC that I just recently gave to my boy for his first car. havin' somethin' different is always cool!

I have been an steady Hot rod reader for years. Good mag, and I picked up a lot of tips for restoring my old Chevy -- guess I'm furthering the myth that HR only serves the old muscle car crowd by saying that.

I prefer V8s, old and new, and both the Mopar 360 in the dodge and the Ford 302 in the LSC are good engines, with a lot of potential. I took the easy way out in my Chevy with a crate engine, but its fun to hot rod them all.

Anything a bit different is cool, 'specially if it's quick and or fast. When I finally got my first bike (original Hurricane) I was hooked-we've pretty much have year round riding here and i'm still hooked! Now it's kinda cool to go to the garage and look, and have to decide: bike or Vette?!

Well I just picked up the January issue of Hot Rod and I think I will be sending out for a subscription. The LS1 article was very informative. Thanks for the heads up Lee.

360s are for trucks...

i have a 340, 30 over...purple cam...it runs on 87 octane, through mufflers, with DOTs, and runs mid 12s...or it did before the tranny died...it has been beefed up, but it was late in the season, and i didnt get to run it afterwards
