I think you answered your question.........rare motor - good deal BUT.....for a comuter car for college........I think........NOT.

Why you ask.......tri-power carbs, 10.1 compression.....& the list goes on.....

Now if your restoring/hotrodding a early 60's fairlane/galixy - & school is X town - probably not an issue.

But then again........if your looking for the hot rod comuter car - go for it.

As for the .060 overbore......If it was a BBC I'd say depending on compression & HP then a .100 would be it. Although I run a blue oval FE 352 in my 62 truck I'm not as up to date on max. bore limits.
