I worked at "Tune-Up Master's" in 1979. V-8 Monza? Simple. Get a really long bar, wedge it between the exhaust manifold and gearbox and stretch the motor mount and place a block in place to hold it while you change the driver side plugs. Piece of cake.

The last guy I knew that had a '68 327/350 'Vette sold it. Why? It was so dang hot in the interior you couldn't stand driving it if you went over 45 minutes.

Evan - thanks for the tip. That's bone stock with ET Streets? 3.55 gears? What kind of launch / shift RPM? I'm assuming this was all pretty "non-abusive" testing?
I'd bet the 605 HP option is over kill in your opinion?
