We have a car show that turns many trucks and bikes away. It's car only. No matter how cool and vintage. It's every Friday until 5:00-9:00 in the summer. Been that way for years/decades.
That is a fair test. I'm from a northern State. Thus none of our cars have air. (At least muscle street performance.) But those that live in Southern states certainly have a bigger stake.
I'll take a Southern boys opinion on topic. Lol.
I began replacing the GTX's radiator. The old still works, but spits a bit when hot outside. And is looking long in the tooth. I'm also adding a MP radiator shoud. Which it hasn't had in at least 20 years. (I'm guessing that will help more than new cores.) The greenage has to go. Just for engine...
Most of us in the corn belt states have E-85 all over. I like as a drag race fuel. But on a longer trip with a higher compression engine? The downside is more frequent gas station stops. But still cheaper option. I would certainly map trip and inquire on availability. It maybe AV is easier to...
These are VERY good counter examples of muscle car description. But the Max Wedge Savoy/Belvedere. The 421 Super Duty Catalina does differ from what I believe is the first true muscle car of the 1964 GTO. And that's being there were lower performance options. Hell, they had 6 cyl 4-door options...
The RB block was too high a deck height for its standard stroke. B block was too low stroke for Chrysler BB in heads up competition vs Chevy in stock format. And of course the Gen II hemi was under cammed for the head flow potential.
Chrysler shines in the fact Mopar BBs had more room to grow...
It's no secret that the pistol grip wasn't the best performance shifter. Even back in the day a Comp + and certainly a Vertigate had faster and shorter throws.
It's entirely about cool factor. And on a street car that doesn't need to trim a 1/10th second? I would live fine with it.
I remember watching I Dream of Jennie as a young boy. And looking down at my baby crotch and ask "What the hell is going on here?" So very possibly the first to give me some "Impure thoughts?"
Nothing has altered my life more than my desires of the opposite sex. Both good and bad. So hopefully...
If you can get sound difference vid of both Manifolds and TTI headers? That would be cool. And helpful. We shouldn't kid ourselves that "Sound" is not important.
For a street cruiser? Manifolds. You're really not going to get that much of a boost with headers on a stock/near stock 383. HP Manifolds flow pretty good. Max Wedge Manifolds will all but match header performance on street builds.
That's how good Mopar Manifold design and flow numbers produce...
