Today and the next few days represent many important engines in the detroit car lineup.

Dave, nice job getting your 283 in here - cool.

That engine was introduced to the motoring public the same year I was born, so that's cool. Furthermore, as long as it has a c.i. or hp rating between 401 and 430, it ranks in my book as a contributor to a super strong month. Thanks for the addition of it!

X's two on the props to Dave and all other 283 racers!

Belated props to Steve Wann, Dwight Machael, and anyone else racing the wicked 413, and circa "enginelabs.com", "the 413 Max Wedge that the Beach Boys immortalized gave the owner 410 to 420 horsepower and right around 500 pound-feet of torque."

Kudos to you Carguy49 for the significance of this week. Starting yesterday thru Friday, there's either a c.i. displacement or advertised hp rating these first six days of the week...

HAPPY MUSCLE MOTOR WEEK!!!!

Thanks Tim for beating me today.

The mighty Ford Thunderbolt and a few other models. Tasca Ford comes to mind.
The COPO Camaro and Big Block Corvettes and a few by names like Yenko, Baldwin Motion and others. Wow what a time to order a car.
