I saw a guy destroy an otherwise perfectly good 1939 Ford Coupe for a rod knock.
The frame was cut and a 305 with a turbo 350 trans was wedged in and some kind of rear set up as well.
To add insult to injury he had these big ugly cast aluminum valve covers that said Chevrolet Power on them. This was a stock smogger 305.
You must be out of your tree if you think that these Chevrolet people are “saving” our beautiful old Fords.
I’ve seen hundreds and I know thousands have been ruined.
