LO23 thanks for posting these great pics of that LO! Your wrenches will never get dusty.
I'd run it just as it is .

Welcome to the BEST LO23 forum.


Congratulations on your purchase!


Be sure and post any updates/pictures/documents/history as you move forward with it.

LO23, Nice addition to your collection. I think I may have welded and fabricated that intake manifold, a looooong time ago.

See you at the races,

Thanks, guys. Yes, I will post again, as the project progresses.


Wayne- could be... I know that Jim Keyes told me that a Tom Tignanelli modified the cross-ram manifold, and Dean Nicopolis built the hemi.

Anything you can offer about it's past or present condition? Anything that might help find out it's owner/ race history from new ?

Wasn't me then, I did a few when working at Koffel's. I wish I could remember the fabricator's name at Tiganelli's (Shadowoods) I couldn't carry that guys lunchbox, he was that good.

See you at the races,

Welcome here Clint. Great to have another LO23 owner on this thread. Congrats on your purchase. You got a great old war horse there.
Have fun with it. Get it out for the public to see. These things will give you the "love it or Hate it" choice over time to decide on. And like Marfen said your tools will definately not get dusty owning one if you use it..lol
Keep us updated on your progress and pics are always a bonus.
I see your from South Dakota. You ever go to Mopars in The park in Farmington?

Liteweight. I might have a small but interesting lead on your LO.
I'll try and PM you.
If you ever get to New York City, I can make the proper introduction with the lost Boyz of Manhattan Speed.

Thank you! No, I've never been there. I have a few mopars, and have thought about bringing my Q5 turquoise Charger Daytona out there, but haven't made it happen yet. Maybe this year... As for the Dart, I definitely plan to get it out and share it with people!
