yea.. v8 has been a plan now for... i... dunnknow... 8 years... i guess too lazy and too cheap. i actually bught a rust free 62, as the 60 is just too far gone now, for my taste, so im gonna move the drivtrain and tons other parts and run the 3fe for a while and see if i like it.I modified the stock linkage arm for direct linkage and have great tip in and 70% WOT. I did add a return spring. It works very well both crawling and on the road. I can feel the engine twist in the mounts corresponding to pedal induced torque.
I am not completely happy with the sniper but I'm not throwing in the towel. If I knew then what I know now, I'd have just sent the carb to Jim.
Considering V8 swap and moving the sniper over to the 20R truck.
