Regarding pics, you have to put the picture on a photo-hosting site, then link to it. Not sure if the mods have changed the directions since the software change about a year ago (you used to be able to drop them straight here).

Who is this MoparJohn and how much alchol must I pry him with to give up his secrets? I've never seen John drink, but he does like helping Mopar folks go faster. Say his name 3 times and he will appear.

I've reached out to MoparJohn and he should be on board shortly. He's also sprinkled some of his ideas on the other weight thread on here (Real world weight loss and its cost)

Have yet to figure out how to add a picture. I've looked at the instructions and the don't work for me. Any hints? Car is a 69 and looks almost show quality. Willard's dart is toast compared to the GTX. His MoFo is something to definitely fear. 8.90s from a normally aspirated small block mopar in the Thunderbird is just Bad A$$! The 2700 lbs doesn't hurt. This MOPAR powered T-bird,,,,,does it come off the Island of Long?? Sound familiar..............
HEMI-ITIS has no cure. My condition is fully BLOWN!!

I'm really surprised the weight difference is negligible.
