Not if you knew what you were doing. I changed a few spark plugs in my '75 Monza with the 327 4 barrel that replaced the 262cid dud. reasonably quick but no match for my Firebird. I sold that Monza to my former girlfriend of the time and her next boyfriend tried to challenge me with it! Felt pretty good smokin' him with my Firebird!
Uh, Sheri, you'd better check that vehicle weight again. My H-body Cosworth Vega with the all aluminum 4 banger weighs in at 2700 lbs, which is less than an iron block V-8 H-body weighs. I think adding at least 1000 lbs more to your number would get you close! Note: Vikki, both cars mentioned so far are keepers, as is my truck. I'm keeping the fun ones, just getting rid of the extra daily drivers, sorry!
