68 Cuda 383 vs a 360
I don't think I ever raced your 367 with my old taxi cab 383. lol
1) don't you think it's time to fresh'n up that 367, if it's done what you say since nineteen hundred and ninety nine it's got to be getting a little tired.
2) PS. had a stock 68 383 Magnum with Hooker fenderwells and 4.56 gears in my 67 fastback
3) in nineteen hundred and seventy nine. where were you.
I know yur funning me, but to be fair;
3) in 79 I was 26 and married for just two years. I was riding back and forth to work, on a one year old Bike of the Year ; a GS 1000; purchased new the previous spring. On weekends I was rocking the Earth in a 74 Dart Sport 360/4-speed/ with a fresh 360 and huge Pro-Tracs. My wife was pregnant, and our first, a daughter was born the following spring.
That 70 Swinger was all used up by 1975, being on it's second everything or more, (all warranties), Thanks to ma Mopar; and I sold the beat-up, worn-out, hulk, for half what I had paid for it just five years earlier.. I would meet my wife to be, just a few months later.
So no, I didn't see you either, lol.
2) Putting headers on a 383
Magnum, makes it a totally different animal. Never mind 4.56s.
1) yes. last time it got new rings was 2004 or 5
Never had a 383, but in 1970, My 340 Swinger annihilated them as installed in Bs; both engines stock.
Bs, as you know, are just a bit heavier than my 3200 pound Swinger, thereby, gear for gear, shrinking their power advantage, to almost nothing.
In hi-school, geaduated in 1972, I knew how to pick my battles. Besides, we were all poor kids. Most of the guys had cars 10 or more years old. But I had a leg up on them, having already saved up $1200 since age 13; and in 1970 the bank was willing to lend me another $1200, based on my deposit history, and a co-signer of course. So I got a nearly new car outta that deal; with a 5/50 warranty no less. Thanks be to my Mum, who taught me the value of saving, and to my Dad for co-signing..
