Yes, I agree . My 70 LT-1 roadster M21 3.70 would lift the front end up that all you saw was that long nose. What a fun car. I’ve had several solid lifter big blocks and the 70 LT-1 is a small block that thinks it’s a big block. I’d red line that motor through every gear time and time again and it never skipped a beat. I owned that car for 22 years and sold it to a guy in Switzerland to buy a 66 L72 coupe. I wish I kept it.
