Would this be LT1-ish enough to make a great Tribute car? Is this a car that would bring a good return for our school, in the 20k+ range, done as a frame off nut and bolt resto? I am also going to get the BB hood and stripes.Īs far as motor, however, would it not be better to, say, dump the 780 Holley gas guzzler for a 670 (looks real similar), use points style distributor and then cover it all with those ignition shields, ram horn manifolds with stock exhaust, ralley wheels with Redlines, etc? I have been okayed to pick up a set of 186 heads so it will have the "camel humps" visible. We are running an A/T, which already means a 'true clone" is not going to happen. To my thinking, and I could easily be wrong, a clone that looks right, but is pleasant to drive and require less manitenance may bring more interest than a clone in terms of mechanical. What makes a clone a clone? I have always thought it was more appearance based, than internal. That is kind of what I am trying to get a handle on. I think we are talking in terms of appearance.
