Yep,,,in the good ol days, there were race cars running true Pontiacs, Buicks, Oldsmobiles, Cadilacs, Desotos, Packards, Studebakers, Lincolns, Mercury's, even Edsels, Plymouths, and others besides the sbc and the hemi. These were not "Corporate" engines either. These were true Pony's, nailheads, FE's, 394's, 292's, 312's, 331's, 354's, wedge head engines (the MEL series and the 348/409 Chevy's) and yes, a bazillion flatheads. *,,,I sure miss those days.
