How about an AMC powered Chevy


I bet it doesn't have a BBC in it.  (The article is a few years old)

I always wanted to have a nice split back vette with AMC engine power.

The chevy car show guys would just go crazy when they saw the distributor in the front.
Best 1/4 mile 8.99, 1/8 mile 5.71, 60 foot 1.27, no power adders

I've been hearing that for over 20 years and still no one has put up any Vette$$$$$ in an attempt to raise someone's feathers

There's a guy here in the Denver area with a Ford 429 powered Vette.   Pretty quick, but raises some hackles of the purists at shows.

I bought a back-half Vega back around 1980 and I was going to put a 340 Mopar in it but ended up bailing on hot. 
And then I bought a ’70 AMX (not the one I have now) and put a 440 Mopar in it followed by a pretty nice 451 Mopar with a PG and Ford 9” rear. It ran 9.90’s. 
Lived down the street from a guy that had a 428 CJ in a ’69 AMX. Thought that was pretty cool! Seeing that is what convinced me a 440 would fit in one.
