Hey guys, new here, but previously had a 75 02 w/ goodies. I've also used the "Search" feature, and have come up with some good stuff, and good questions.
Right now I'm looking at a 69 1600 that has an 02 motor swapped in w/ the stock 4 spd. I am trying to see if this car would be a good fit for my future plans.
It seems like the 1600's don't have sway bar mounts. If they don't, is there a way I could install them?
And beside the normal 02 healthy motor mods, I was thinking of doing a 5 spd, LSD, bolt on suspension, and upgraded OEM brakes all around down the road.
Would a 1600 that is in good shape and already has a nice 2.0 motor in it be a good candidate for the above mods?
Thanks in advance.
Oh, and I just remembered another question. lol, can you build up a 1600 short block to the same bore and stroke and hp as a built up 2.0. In other words, are the limits the same for both blocks?
