Sanity is not an option in the HiPo Forum. I cut my teeth on Buick straight eights. My dad was a die hard Buick man until I was in my mid 30s. Learned to drive on back country roads on the north edge of OKC in a 1950 Roadmaster w/3 on the tree. If you have access to a engine and the skill set and tools to do it, I say go for it.ðŸ›
