Thanks for the info Mr. Billy !
But if I'm gonna buy a big heavy 4-door, it'll have to be a wagon. And since I already have plenty of motor parts and trannies, all I need is the correct year body. I think I can find just a usable body in my area for $1000 or less. I reckin I live in an area with a very depressed economy. If you can get to a car before some wineo or scrap dealer takes it to the crusher, you can find some real bargins.
I was cruisin thru the 455 hp factors again lookin for the best possible combo. What I found that looks better to me than any other combo is a '73 Formula with a 250hp 455. It's factored at 306hp, if this info is correct.

Since they all look very similar from '70-'73, any of those years will work, as a '73. Some of the '70 Formulas and TA's had a 12 bolt rear end. Then all the '71-73's should have the 8.5" ten bolt.
