1977 Malibu: OEM = 160-170, Old = 275, New = 271
1969 Roadrunner: OEM = 390, Old = 400, New = 395
1986 T'bird OEM = 150, Old = 200, New = 197

How were these eligible for a reduction?
I’m not familiar with that rule, however the Six Pack needed it in C for sure. John Leach must be pleased but I’m sure he wished for more. Beep Beep!
