My 1974 has a 401, a T-10 (soon to be a 6-speed Richmond), & a stock AMC 20
rear end with Moser axles & a truss. I did build frame connectors, & added
stiffer springs & shocks. Of course, the blower is the best part......
Brand X engines (ie, Chevy) DO NOT BELONG IN AMC'S!!!!! AMC engines can
make as much (or more) power.

I picked amc,s because they are so very diffrent from anything else. I fix
my cars my self, and I love all types of auto,s that go fast. I say if you
want a porsch powered amc GO FOR IT now that would be very diffrent. Not me
thing but I would love to see it. As for a 401 in an other wise stock
gremlin,HA HA HA .1st I got one. 2nd it never came from amc that way so its
not any better than a turbo deisel VW in a Pacer. 3rd You better know how to
weld because if you do not weld in frame connectors, (And change it from
"bone stock") you will be welding the body seams back together after the car
twists and pops them. Oh ya better have an extra rear window or two ,cause
there gona pop like fire crackers. Oh ya that "Bone stock" rear end it will
blow a hole in the ground fist time you hammer it.Stock AMC leaf springs?
come on Amc came from the factory leaning to one side. Point is if you want
a turbo AMC or a bow tie Amc and you have the knoladge to build it right, DO
IT. Any one can put a model together,Not every one can mold it outa some old
plastic pop bottles and match sticks and win first place.I have 7 AMCs at
this time. Some stock and very rare some not so stock and very fast. some
not even gremlins hell I gotta Gruemin box van I pull my race car trailer
with.
