Selling a pair of 400's. Both are 4 brl motors and pretty complete. 1976 400 - had water in two cylinders, but is standard bore. It will probably need to go 60 over because of those two cylinders. It obviously got in through the carb, as the thermoquad is all seized up also. It has been torn down to the s...
After a day at the drags in Picton where I saw many of you folks I had to play tonight in Foxboro. On the way home we decided to stop at the DQ for a cone. A Honda with four young lads and a HP exhaust was not far behind whipping in and out of traffic and jazzing his motor. When we rounded the corner he passed me on t...

Taking the car this year and skippi...
I bought a new 1/4 drive Snap-on ratchet and the first time I go to use it the socket fell off. So I returned it no problem as the ball was missing. When I went to put it in the tool box I noticed it did not say made in USA as all my other ones do. Seeing I am always being accused of being controversial I phoned Sn...

The way I read the website is that it will be test...
