Got to drive a Mr Norms Demon that was a trade in when I worked at a Dodge dealer while in school. A real treat moving it in snow and rain with those little tires.

??????? Those dual quad cars would easily run 12.70's on a good day with a legal 283. We were torn down several times so everyone knew it wasn't a 327. As the camshafts evolved, the car would run quicker as a 245 hp than a 270.

If you were like me, tech guys were feeling the sides of the block for motor mount bosses until they knew you had been torn down. Between setting records and protests, they all knew my '56 was a 265".

Maybe we can start a new thread,

Northeast 283's = 327 cubic inches.

I'd bet the Lime Green Duster was built by my friend Charlie. He built the car took look like a factory car. When it was done, he got bored of it quick and sold it. His work is fantastic.

...so how was breakfast today.

[Geerhead55]

Breakfast was great,,, about 10 of us showed up including the 3 brothers who are Mopar fanatics and lifelong friends of mine. Strange,,, but they were unusually quiet this morning when I mentioned this thread. The middle brother alluded to something about not being able to find this on his computer,, imagine that! The Ford guys sitting at the table next to us wanted to know what that smoke was that was coming from under their chairs!
I bought my own biscuits and gravy today, but seeing them squirm a little was worth the price of admission,,, actually the Ford guys were glad for once we were'nt ganging up on them!
