Valiants with V8s
Over the decades I have had many and and all flavors of Mopar engines and car models, and I have loved them all for what they were.
Power per $, hard to beat a decent small block. Best v8 mileage (highway) was 18 (doing 75 and up from Ca. to Mo.) in a 67 383 Cuda 4 speed with 2.94 gears. Best slant was 25 or slightly better (highway doing 55) 4 speed OD in a Duster/ Probably 3:23 gears.
Solution: have 3 Valiants, 1 SB, 1 BB and 1 slant!! Enjoy life~~~
