Happy Muscle Motor Month!!!!

[GarysZ24]

This is what I was hoping to see, thanks guys! I may not currently have a dog in either of these months fights, but nearly 40yrs ago I had two:

1. In 1980 I bought a 2dr '66 Chevy Impala Coupe that (get this), came with a 396/325hp engine, and a 3spd tranny!!! I didn't know such cars with such engines, came with such trannies!!!!

2. In (I believe) 1984, I had a 1967 Chevelle 2dr Coupe, that I replaced the original 283/195 mill, with a 327 that had 194 "Fuelie" heads for it, and a Power-glide tranny.

Piss poor choices of who would work on both cars, contributed mightily to why I didn't have either of those cars for long....😔

I don't remember, but I wasn't very savvy with manual trannies. Had I kept that car, I would've eventually replaced it with a Turbo 400.
