    The 352 engine sucked at the dragway. My best friend owned a 1959 Ford with a 352 engine and the best he could do in the quater mile was 17 seconds an less than 80 mph. This was in the mid 1960s.

    Just a note about braking drums loose. A trick I’ve been doing for fifty years. On the backside of the backing plate just cut the heads off of the brake shoe retaining pins Small cutoff wheel or shape chisel the brake springs will help pull the shoes in and they will collapse inside the drum and helps in removing the brake drum

    Just a note on braking a drum loose, I cut the heads off the brake shoe retaining pins on the back side of the backing plate with a small cutoff wheel or sharp cole chisel and the brake shoes will then pull themselves in and collapse inside the drum and then the drum is alot easier to remove. Give a try next time, saves from damaging the drum and beating yourself to death. Something I’ve been doing for 50 years 😊
