The slant or the 318

I am enjoying my 170 all stock /6 and will never go V8 in my 66 Valiant...
With 65.670 mile on this Sedan I removed the very small down pipe and put fresh air to a 390 cfm holley, removed the points and plugs and put the correct plugs in for the better and more reliable Mopar electronic ignition .
My Valiant is not fast but it is light and all new bearings in the drive train.
I drove over 300 miles to get her home with the 1 barrel and the day I removed the points, small exhoust and added these plugs with a well tuned carb it feels like I added 1/4 more HP.
and truthfully getting 23 to 26 MPG... it's taking the potato out of the exhaust and feeding it with cool air, it's about 190 degrees under the hood....
This is a great daily driver and it will get out of it's own way...

I don't know what 11.26 1/8 mile would or could be in the 1/4 mile but it has an open 3/23 gear rear end that came factory so I went with 14'' wheels and she can run 70 mph all day long in 100 degree weather (no shroud) here in Arkansas...
I would think if I had skinny pie pan tires up front and hit it harder at the light with good gas and spun my carb side ways it would run 11.00 in the 1/8. My daily driven and 170 slant six parts I added and has been flawless for 3 years, /6 cars are just soooo cool. When the day comes I will be picking Bill Dedmans brain and go turbocharged :cheers:

Me enjoying my girl
before the new split exhaust was piped up with 2 1/4 to 0ne 2'' after the tail shaft with a quit stock 318 muffler.
