    Shouldn't be that hard to find a 289/302 in sweden, I believe there's more Amcar's over there than here in Norway? :p Over here they come up for sale every once in a while..

    OT: 302/308:)

    I almost feel bad after looking at that v-10 viper engine but I have a 460 bored 30 over with a big cam,alum intake,and 4 brl.

    Just need to get rid of these heavy stock heads and replace with aluminum.

    sorry, but what the hell is that?

    Looks like it weighs more than the car itself.
