Had Rhodes lifters and 273 adjustable rocker arms. With some pencil neck pushrods compared to todays. Those good old days when tuning was an art and records were set.

Paul you have me laughing, you would never see 7000 rpm with one of GK's cam's ... those we came up with were low RPM with lots of torque - 6200... maybe 6400 rpm... living with stocks springs was a treat. The Chrysler specs that were turned in for the 340's and 360's were a treat to work with after working with the limited spec's on the chevrolets.
