There you go Glen, I believe you have your answer, everyone has their opinion, and this is why I like this club, so much, no wrong answer's
Yesterday I had the opportunity to drive my neighbors 66 Chevelle (Well built)427 4-speed to a car show. Heavy car compared to our Cobra's, but sure pull's hard, and easily break's the tires loose in the first two gears. Nothing like a Big Block to put a smile on your face
Cheers Tom.
