: ok dennis, how bout a rundown of your little
: timebomb?

: OK. '76 Duster, Sl 6, 904, 3.23 8-3/4 rear,
: 3605#.
: Motor is a '69 225 block +.060", stock
: deck, steel crank turned 20-20. Got some 198
: rods in it with da 2.2 turbo pistons. We
: floated the pins only as insurance if we had
: to take it back apart, (no one could tell us
: where the deck height was gonna come out).

: considering it has a 2bbl on it and an
: "ancient" camshaft. I have put
: almost 3500 miles on it just driving to and
: from dragstrips this season. "0"
: problems so far! Dennis
