Anyone remember when Popular Hot rodding built a BB vega in the 77 or so? It was quite a feat and they had to do a ton of work to get it to work

I seem to recall PHR doing a Vega Panel Wagon. It had "Vega High" painted on the sides. They installed a 30 over 396 with oval port heads and a Turbo 400. I think the first few passes were 11 os, then with some adjustments, they ran in the tens. I don't recall them having any problems getting the motor in there, but it has been a while and my memory has faded. maybe someone here has that particular issue of PHR. I think the engine build was one issue and the install and track day were all separate issues.

PHR's Vega High was a hatchback. The guy who built the car just passed away a year or so ago.
