The Venetian blinds in the rear window were a little-old-man thing back in the real early '70s in my part of the USA. If a young person bought a car with them in, they got removed the first hour. Definitely uncool back then.

Same as caps with earflaps that tie under the chin. Back then, no way would a kid be caught wearing something like that. Now they're all over the states,, made in Peru or places like that.

The longer I live, the stranger it gets.....

Got the number of carbs right, just too many doors! Hopefully it has 3 pedals.

What's a safe rpm for stock crank, stock pan as in a stocker engine. I will use the limited collapsing lifters and stocker cam. Guy I bought the heads, intake and cam from said on kill he went 8500. I don't want to be knocking the bearings out, comments?

His first two post in the thread tells most of what his basic combination is. Just not the smaller things

I seriously doubt any SB LA Mopar out there will pull in gear with a hydrauic roller cam and hydraulidc roller lifter and matching valve springs up to or much past 7000 RPM, let alone 8500 in any gear confused Maybe in nuetral or park work whistlingshruggy
I was told by a older guy, drinking Cutty Sark whiskey straight out of a quart bottle at 1:00 PM in the afternoon at the Colorado river back in 1965, that his N/A 392 Hemi motor in his 21 ft. flat bottom V drive Mandella wood hull would peg his 8500 RPM tach shock I bet him it wouldn't do that so he offer me a ride in it the next morning when he was sober. It would peg the electric tach at 8500 RPM as soon as he went WOT, but it was showing 4300 RPM crusing at around 35 MPH warming up the motor before he hit it hard work He had a Vertex magneto on that motor and he should have had a 4 cyl electric tach for it, not a V8 tach. It was reading twice as much RPM when the motor was running, not the true cranksaft RPM it should have been reading. Most of the other, better, high end boats back then had Jones Motorola mechanical tachs driven off of the top of the V drives so they measured the true crankshaft revolutions, not the propeller revolutions.
My message is it is easy to be mislead on many things, especaiily automotive racing parts and storys shruggy
On your deal I would shift it when the motor quits pulling hard in second gear, don't look at the tach before shifting, listen and feel the motor quit pulling first and then look at the tach to see where it quit pulling hard twocents scope Shift it 200 to 300 RPM before it quits pulling hard up Don't over revved it tsk

I'll ask him again next time we talk, might have heard him wrong, he was world champion with a Duster out of Balt. about 10 years back. Funny you mention it, I've never watched a tach, except to launch.
