I might be getting a old beat up 1972 mav in the next year and my plan when I do get it is to turn it into a nice drag car but also something that will look nice and I can put into shows in a few years, I want to completely rebuild the car/engine. any first step suggestions that I can prepare for before I get it. or even after I get it? what do you think the best engine to put in it would be? anything helps!
If I were building a drag Maverick, I'd notch the spring towers and put a 408 stroker in it. But there are many options for what you're wanting to do.
Thanks everyone yeah im just trying to find the best for a drag car. I was thinking a 351w but im not sure yet. I really wanna build my own.
from a fellow Oregonian As for the motor, well it all depends how quick you want to be and how deep your pockets are
My money isnt as fast as i want it to be but it will come together with time. I just want some good ideas for the engine so i can get a head start on it! The 408 stroker seems prettypowerful, ill have to look into it!
