Comparison 340 / 289

Back in the day, a high school buddy that had 65 Stang w/289 4bbl dual exhaust stock mani's we raced and I beat him with my 70 Challenger w/bone stock 318 2bb. I must have had at least a few hundred pounds on him, the car that is... LOL! And still walked away from him.

The next year I put together a '69 Dart w/440 out of a Chrysler Newport (low compression job) and street raced it with him as my side kick. The Dart had skinny wheels and tires with hub caps. Definitely a sleeper. Oh course I didn't race too many off the line.

Well, now he owns his own Mopar - 64 Sport Fury w/440. You can find him on www.forbbodiesonly.com with the handle of Moose. Sweet Fury!
