Boy, this thread is not the place for me! My car's day would have been two months ago... if only February had 83 days!

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.

True on the c.i. of the engine, but Feb. 20th would've been good (just like January 20th for my cars motor @ 120hp), because 220 definitely fit into that month!

You did, and thank you for that important addition. I'm giving out plenty of love for all of the engines, hp ratings and even factory gearing relative to the engines past and present that contributed mightily to our favorite sport...at least it's mine!!!!

This weekend should be a hemi lover's delight, as tomorrow represents the advertised hp rating of (at least the '68-'70 hemi's), if not all of them that were of the beloved 426 engine.

HAPPY HEMI WEEKEND!!!!
