SOLD

I was going to make em find it themselves! I’m tired of doing all the work around here!

It’s on flea bay. I’ve offered it here 3 times previously with no response but feel like I should at least mention that I’ve listed it on EBay at this time.

No one has offered to buy it or have shown any serious interest. I’ve heard the “junkyard slant 6” suggestion so much it’s ridiculous. There’s no such thing in my area. A good used slant 6 in the junkyard is getting scarce in 2023. I’m not putting a used engine in this car without tearing it...

I’ll let the next guy fool with it, he’s got more time than I do!

I’m busy making a nice quilt for next years fair. Besides if it’s not a big block 69 Charger or 71 Hemi Cuda, is it really worth fooling with?

Oh not about giving it to him, just how I went about it

I had second thoughts about it’s content.

Get ya some of this!

I’ll have to agree with you on that. It did have decent take off for what it is. A numerically lower gear would hurt that. But, it might not live “at”70 mph but it lives “in” 2023. I’ve driven the car on the interstate where traffic is going no less than 80 and I wished I had just one more...

It’s perfect for backroads and hills. On the interstate where the speeds are closer to 80 just to keep up, not so much. The small tires and cam profile on this build are not ideal for 3.55. Typically, when I think “highway gear” I think of something in the 2.76 range.

It ain’t no highway gear in this setup I promise ya!

3.55 was the only option for 6 cyl Fury’s this year.

It could use another gear, or a higher gear in the rear. The engine was plenty tourqey

That would be a great combo. You’d be surprised how nimble this car is with that 225.
