Some things that I learned from some attendees;
427's were not available on Big Chevys in 1966.

No 4-speed 1st gen Monte Carlos were ever built at the factory. They were all done by speed shops.

The 454 equipped 1963 Buick Riviera RS was a terrible, trouble-prone car.

I think that was everything.
Sheesh-those guys were wrong!

1. 427's were only available in the Corvairs in 1966
2. Only Tremec 5 speeds were available in the Monte Carlos (with the optional clutch pedal)
3. It was a 460 equipped, not a 454 equipped 1963 Riviera!

Juuuuuuuuussssssst kidding!
