Default Re: '66 Dodge D-Dart at Mecum auction

That D-Dart that got classed into L/SA in 1970 (12.50-12.99 wt/hp).
1) Simple, obviously he pulled the 4-speed and put in an automatic.
2) He pulled off the Holley 700 cfm carburetor, and put on a 273/235HP
Carter 500 cfm AFB.
* He must have claimed a 273/235HP engine.
* No way you could tell the difference, unless you measured the camshaft
lift, or checked valve spring pressure.
