Best thing about a 410 Merc. is the 3.980" crank.

Sorry Ed, but since there's only 30 days in April, the great 440 Mopar mill faces the same fate as the 454 and the 455 (not enough days in the month to be included in this). However, since those engines are truly Muscle Motors, they would get my vote...if only the month of April could be extended 25 days longer.....but then March would have to be extended as well, so it could include such great engines as the 340 Mopar, 350 Chevy & B.O.P. 350, the 383 Mopar, the 390 Ford, and the 396 Chevy...to bad there's no 4/00 date, or even the 400 would have a place...life just isn't always fair, but this is still is a great week, and one I'll remember always for it's ironic significance to our sport!

They give great credibility to the month of March, along with the 3/02 Ford, the 3/18 Mopar, and the 3/31 Oldsmobile.

True Johnny, but great additions to the powerful month of April!!!

My triplet girls were born on 3/27. They were little "high revers" but then on 4/27, when they were one month old, they were less peaky, more powerful!

As the Keyshawn Johnson of Espn Monday Night Football would say...Danny, C'MON MAN! You have one of the baddest birthdays of anyone (at least you said it is/was a cool month) ...I wish I could afford to race a 426 Hemi (whether in a '68 Dart, a '65-'66 Coronet, or a '63-'66 Plymouth Savoy/Belvedere, because I certainly would! Besides, I'm a bit jealous of you and others who have b'days on days that match some of the greatest American engines of our current/recent history, because my b'day is 5/24, and I'm certain there's no engine of 524 c.i. that was a production motor... I hope I'm wrong, but I don't think so.
