    Yea, another wakko motor- head from CT, 1st 20 cars were flatheads, some were so goosed up they sounded like a diesel, then got into mix/match like a 50 Pontiac with a 55 olds, then a 50 Olds coupe again witha 55 olds, they held their own against most of the home grown stuff coming up at the stop lights.
    My current project is a 60 Chev Impala 2 door HTP, 283 slushbox, however I would really prefer a shoebox. Glad to join this site.
