No doubt; you speaking of scaring Corvettes reminds me of this. Ours was an '85 stepside with an all aluminum 454, TH400, 9.5 ring gear rear axle drilled for 5 hole 5&quot; bolt circle. Best ET was 10.71 (see &quot;Is it True?&quot; below).

I hesitate to add this (no dog in the fight either way) On the -- 69 huggar orange nova we restored for Alan Forman, it had a redish/pink card wedged in between the heater box, and floor board that said it needed to go to the repair area. It was hard to read, but pnt could be made out. The car had lots of overspray on the inside.

We had the same thing with the painters at the plant I worked in before they went to full air suits. Vasaline all over their faces and extremities. Better to be a welder. :-)
