Sure, the block could be original, but the 140 heads and certainly headers
weren't. For example, the 60s didn't have the "modern" choked version of the
carburetors... Recall? The heads were not developed according to GM until
well after 1960. Etc.

I have a friend who claims to have a 1960 sedan with the original engine
block and with 140 HP heads with headers. Is this possible? We are
discussing a vapor lock and fuel dripping when shut off. Thanks for any
input on this.
