It's amazing how many people turn up their noses at anything other than a sbc. I don't know if they are just uninformed, afraid of something different or want to fit in so bad that they want what everyone else has. I sold my '47 Ford coupe after removing the '56 Firepower Hemi because the guy had something completely different in mind. He set it on a '68 442 chassis that he had stripped the body off of. It was a rusty work car but a real 442. Several years later I ran into the car at a show and told the currant owner that this was my old car. He was dissapointed that it was not a sbc and was thinking of selling. He could not understand why anyone whould mount the car on a Chevelle chassis and put an Olds in it. I explained the whole story to him and he then understood that he had a '68 442 with a '47 Ford coupe body. He wasn't impressed at all and still wanted to sell. People are just crazy.
