My apologies, my typo. I have found Wikipedia to be accurate for the most part. A little slanted (depending on who wrote the article) but pretty good otherwise.
Dano78,
I hear you on the 5 bolt. Unfortunately my 289 and C-4 are of the 1964 5 bolt variety which is why the speed shop that built my motor could only use their dyno as a test bed and not actually tune it. Their clutch wouldn't fit inside the only bell housing I could find for the 5 bolt.
I had a 260 in a 63 Mercury Meteor station wagon and it proved to be a great motor. Powerful enough to tow my 14 foot boat and pretty economical with the single barrel carb. Good enough to go camping and boating in AK.
