Had a 72 Vega wagon back in the early eighties with a 327 turbo 350 and a 8 3/4 Chrysler rear end. Bought the Hooker kit with mounts and headers. Was a really fun car to drive. Was one of the fastest cars in town at the time. I ran low a low 13 at the track with street tires and full exhaust. Sounds slow now but was a lot of fun. I worked at a machine shop and sleeved several Vega motors. My dad had a 73 wagon that was fully loaded for a Vega and he loved the car. My brother and I are still trying to find a Cosworth Vega that's in nice shape for a reasonable price. GM performance even had a whole section in the catalog dedicated to the Cosworth motor. I know the Vega wasn't the greatest car but the Cosworth could really perform for only 122 ci.!! Even some of the old POS'S still had some rare one's that are worth something!!
.Almost forgot. My wagon had a flat factory hood!
