Mike, that is Barney Purple, not urban aubergine. But with a V8, I think it can get away with the dinosaur association

That reminds me of an outragious 1970 MOPAR color ... from the short-lived Peter Max ad campaign ... pre-dated Barney by a few decades!
InViolet!!! Let's see how many Dodge-hating morons this one draws out??? ![]()

Happy B-day Z!
Nice car! I have to ask: How quick is it compared to the 3.6? |

It's a 283 with an over bore to 292, Rod Simpson conversion parts. Aluminum heads, Rochester spread bore carb, Borla exhaust.
It's quick off the line but needs a little tweaking.....Summer Fun that starts on the 21st of June....God, I'll be 47......

cool. sounds like a hoot.
Is first blocked off or has a 915 been swapped in there? I thought the 350 was the standard on these. Is the 283->292 better suited in terms of gearing? Man, I want a V8 teener |

!st is Just NOT used....%^B....two schools of thought, you can use a Sporto ring and pinion and adjust the gearing THAT way....or go in and adjust the 4th and fifth to give a lower freeway rpm. Right now it does abour 3,000 rpms at 65mph in fifth......
So I will probably set up another box soon ans swap it out. Standard 901 boxes and plentiful as are sporto r&ps.... Dan....c'mon bye....see the mess....my contractor blew out his ACL and is hobbling around....stuff is at a standstill.....
