Ford 385 series can be bored and stroked to 552 cubic inches using stock block,stock crank,stock rods, good for 700 +horse power....Sorry chevy guys . Cant say the same is true. Chevy big blocks can only be bored and stroked to 468,..oh plus you have to change the crank to aftermarket steel one if you want to go past 500hp....Better get busy and find a good 460 ,there still around but i think the cats out of the bag.
dude wicked Torino... right now my 71 has a mostly stock (step up cam) 70 year model 351 cleveland with a 4:11 ford 9 inch rear end and a c-6 tranny. One day I have plans to build it up with a year correct 71 model 429 I have in my garage. Hoping to give it about 500 hp at the wheels. burnout video on my page..just type in "smokin burnout". Nice Torino man..

Almost all of the old American big blocks are excellent. For me, adding newer technology to a 501 Cadillac has awakened a sleeping giant. Extremely fast, extremely good gas mileage, very low maintenance, and very quiet. Ford, Chrysler, GM all made engineering masterpieces that can be updated to last 500 years. I want the 1969 Torino Talladega (maroon) which I WILL GET if I should live long enough.
me imagino que es un torino mas o menos standard... por que si un v8 muy preparado hace 11 segundo me quedo con los autos 4 cilindros muy preparados que hacen menos tiempo en el 1/4 de milla
I dig your comment about BBFs and have a 71 Torino and a 9 sec 427 Mustang...but no Big Block Chevys are the best...Ive built many BBFs and they have serious oiling issues.
my dad used to have a Mercury Cyclone. he said he got it for $2,000 when he was a teen but he ahd to give it away i dont know much about them but didnt they come with a 351 C?
torino's are way underrated, i mean you see chevelles and GTO's getting the big bucks but wheres the ford at? i know they rusted bad but shouldn't that increase the value of good ones? hopefully i'll get a video of mine up after i finish restoring it this summer.

@xsonz2 You must have known Vernon "Pete" Hall for those were his favorite words and guess what, he was a master engine builder. Trust and believe.
