Crude attempt at long ram induction for max low end performance.
When drag racing I sometimes used the phrase “Cut The Tree Down”, when referencing a great reaction time on the green light. But never did I think...
You might be right, but that's a different kid and she looks much happier.
Either pain from something that’s not obvious or fear of what’s about to happen. :confused: Edit: Or maybe "Do I really want to try this"? I've...
Sleeper! or Incognito!
About the same as single engines, it comes down to rear tire diameter and RPM’s you want to turn engine at finish line.
Well the mileage number was probably close about 32. The only difference would be the alphabetical suffix. I’m guessing #1 would have been ~ 32...
Hmmm........ Which one below do I want......... I think I'll take number 2 ..... :D [ATTACH] [ATTACH]
o_OThat's strange how can he claim the motor is missing, when I can clearly see it right there! :confused:

Me too! I also liked the carry-on era from ’65 to ’75, when things got even wilder with the fuel burning fiberglass bodied funny cars on...
There we go, Pee Wee Wallce again! Edit: It was common for Pee Wee in one of his Virginian cars, one of Banning cars, one of the Big Red cars or...
