66 hipo dart info

Jim Lusk said

I believe the 8-3/4 may not have been available at the beginning of the 66 model year. During the 66 model year Hot Rod magazine took two identically equipped 66 Darts (273 four barrel, 904, 7-1/4). One car was modded by the editor and the other by Dick Landy.

My source raced Junior Stock with a 65 Dart 273/4 speed car. He broke his 7 1/4 and when he took it in on warrenty the dealer put in an 8 3/4 per the TSB. I would have to check with him but I'm sure he had the 8 3/4 installed in early 65. I just looked for the letter in my library and I can't find the copy he made for me. I'll get another tomorrow and post it.
