I forgot to get the Dyno Sheets and have asked for a copy.
Did not make much power 375/380 in the five thousand+ rpms. I did not have them spin it up much, basic break in & adjust. (Hair Lines, Waist Lines and HP claims) You know LoL I think using some "facts" & poor assumptions of the build and Diamond Pistons Comp calc, we might be around 10.75:1 at Best. I just hope it is peppier than the #'s L35 which I broke. The Numbers matching drivetrain is tucked away & will be rebuilt for future. This Motor should work wonders with the 69 Chevelle "CX" TH400 that is in the car. I can tell you the L35 & the CX were NOT a happy marriage. More Soon. JIM

Counted Cross Stitch
Here is an interesting one. Years Ago, My wife made this for me. Using a Pattern and Cross Stitching in the scheme of the Red Camaro. I was so impressed with her efforts I had it Triple mat and framed. Looking around we can not find the Source or mfr or vendor whom offered this was done in the 1990-ish. I thought I would post it in the Owners 'thread' for the Car.
Related, just not a bolt on part LoL I think Stoney Creek offers some patterns but not this 67/68 side profile pattern. * & Yes, I used to have some Weird "Midas Exhaust" prior to the Advent of the Installed correct Gardner versions, Please excuse the Cars Tips,,,,, Jim
