my low buck street and strip ride

Hey Mike, that sideways mount is slick. Can't beat the accessibility it allows. I expect it will run strong that way also, with a open plenum intake. I haven't seen that recently, I remember some SBC Super Modified guys doing it 30 or so years ago.

P.S. I saw your post on the BB thread about Mean Green. That article was my first recollection of Joe Sherman. I never forgot his name after that and always read about engine builds when his name was mentioned.

I got just about every mag. by subscription from 1970 to the early 90's. and I do remember that car specifically. I believe it was titled 9sec for 5k.....something like that.

When I moved from Fl to Va in 2005, I had well over 2000 magazines. Unfortunately, the wife said.....no go. I hate to think about where they ended up today, but let's just say, i think she owned stock in our counties recycling center....:banghead:
