I better not show this thread to my dad. He never had a 2 step, Chips or anything but a 1/2 speed tach. Hemi, 4 speed and 3000 lbs.

I drove his 1972 restored Pro Stocker 200 feet one day with the Hemi, 4speed and 2 dominators on it. My girlfriend did me no good for months after that. No **** I got goose bumps just loading it up in the trailer.
