I've always liked the '64 F-85 with the 330 engine. The 290 hp. version of that motor would run very strong with the right tuning. I knew a guy who campaigned his '64 in NHRA in a stock class, and he made it all the way to the final round at Indy in 1968. As I recall, he ran in the mid 12 second range, with a 4 speed.
