Us limp wrists must sit behind desks and earn enough money to afford OD Yeah, that's the problem.
They say there are no such thing as a stupid question. They say there is always the exception that proves the rule. Don't be the exception.

In 1968 I had 4 teeth pulled by my small town dentist without pain killers. To his credit it did all four very quickly. Did you know the tooth brush was invented in West Va? Any place else it would have been called a teeth brush.

Us limp wrists must sit behind desks and earn enough money to afford OD If you have a small block that swap to a 518 only set me back $1,000 using the factory TC that came with it. Looking at $1500 or about if you need an Ultrabell to fit it to a big block. As long as you can make your own mount - no problem.

Might add in late 60s a tank of gas was $5.00. Two 4s, 5.86 gears, cruising Friday and Saturday nite would take 2 tanks. Didn't matter back then, $100 or more does today on wall mart greeters salary does. In the year 1967, the average retail price of gas in the U.S. was $0.33. This is equivalent to $2.47 in 2018 dollars. National Average Price of gas as of 8/20/18. $2.838. It's $2.69 around here. Lol , In the early 70's I absolutely refused to buy Sunoco 260 because it was an outrageous 45 cents per gallon. Typical Walmart greeter probably does not use 2 tanks of gas in a month.
In theory, there is no difference between theory and practice. In practice, there is.

Any place else it would have been called a teeth brush. I did not live in WVa. I had no cavities and the 4 teeth were in good shape and not wisdom teeth. My jaw was too small.

I also remember 31 to 33 cents per gallon gasoline when CocaColas from a vending machine was 10 cents. The ratio of gasoline price to vending machine Cokes has stayed pretty stable. The ratio of a Mars MilkyWay bars to gasoline has also stayed relatively constant. The above ratios have been more stable that the ratio of the price of crude oil to either a troy ounce of silver or Gold.

I still have that car! LOL I pumped 260 for $.38 @ gallon (my weekend job) pumped 190 the most, $.29
