That combo sounds fun!
It would be better if the 500 would wind up to about 7500 rpm instead of the stock 4500 rpm top out.

You might want to check your info on the hp rating on the '72 model.
I do believe that the big hp model was in '69 and went down hill from there due to emissions.

Still a cool motor though........had one in my 54 Ford F-100 in high school.
