Hi Mike,

I still haven't used those converters. Too many OTHER combos to play with.

I hate to burst those guys bubbles on Travis' link, but Junior Stock had nothing to do with HEADS-UP racing. There was heads-up racing because until at least 1970, we had to win class at our track just to compete in Eliminations. But there was no "official" Jr. Stock anything. It was a magazine re-enforced state of mind at the time that dealt with the older combinations that weren't like the factory backed big-inch Muscle Cars of then recent years.

Interesting though. Thanks Travis.

Jerry
