Raced for years with Neil Cargyle who had a Ferrari with a Corvette
engine in it - after blowing two Ferrari V12s and getting tired of
dealing with Chinetti and Ferrari.
Turned down buying the car in the mid 70s with the two blown engines for
$4500... sob, sob....
The there was the Maserati 300S in Brockton, MA with the Pontiac V8.
Same price, maybe less...
