Not Ranked
Wayne I recently sold my Coupe that had a 408 Strokerhad . Great low end torque with 3.73 gears and very useable 5th gear (.82) with my tko 600. The very best thing I did was to put a Quick Fuel 750 Carb on it with an automatic choke. I know it is not as good as a race carb but given I only get to make two trips to a road course anymore I like the dependability and ease of start with my little stroker. I believe my old push rod 408 was bullit proof and a lot of fun to drive. I also think about 500 hp is just about right.
