[AMC-List] 'She's My Little Rock 'n Roll'

Hello AMC people!   Here I am again asking advise on yet another idea 
on 
a
powertrain swap for my beloved little red 'vert.  The thought of 
cutting
up the engine bay on this car to put in a 290  really makes me 
cringe. 
Especially after seeing a couple examples on ebay.  So my thoughts 
are 
now
leaning toward a 258 or a 232, because it has to be an AMC.  I have 
so 
far
kept the car period correct, but not totally original.  The car is 
just
to nice to be sporting the 196 ohv.  There is no aftermarket for it 
and
not much potential.  I already have a T14 to hook it up to.  Also is 
there
any difference in bell pattern up to '85or '86?    THANK YOU  once 
again, 
M.Walter redamc1963@xxxxxxxxxxx

Get a '97 or newer 2WD JEEP cherokee 4.0 engine / auto. trans / ECM &
harness & shiftier out of a donor and install the package - you will 
be glad you did.

Shop www.car-parts.com > find who has lo mile offerings,
and eMail an offer of around $1,500.00 for the whole shooting
match - delivered.   You will find a taker in this market.

also: NAXJA.org > post a wanted there.

 the value of the Red vehicle will improve dramatically which helps
when you're trading in for that new Chevy Impala later on.....

Make a stand for the 196 & T14 in your garage & put  Museum Lamps
on 'em for effect - buff out that valve cover ......

I like 'period mechanics' as well as the next gear Nasher, buhutt
a Red convertible that can go anywhere, service anywhere and run with 
the Greyhounds is a logical choice.

upgrade the front brakes to DISC while your putterin.

Between this list and the Strokers list, you'll have little 
difficulty in completing an up to date 4.O Efi 4spd. Automatic
Red convertible 'Classic' that sips gas and swats Hoodoos.
  


Gonna' skin your knuckles regardless - and the end money will be the 
same.
