To Earl's post, guilty as charged. Big Paxton blower, headers, Isky cam,
fibreglass doors, hood, deck lid, 2150 lbs, high 12's low 13's and I drove
it 60 mile round trip to work everyday.
And John, luckily I had a killer aftermarket clutch and 3.89 gears in the
Vega (before the V8 went in) because that was the only way I made it back
out of Big Horn. Same deal, 4500, drop the clutch, go as far as you could,
start over. Day later got a hole in the oil pan going down the back way
to, is it San Antonio? Lotsa fun, make do vehicles.
