I remember my first car.It was a 1970 Chevrolet Impala 4-dr.
For the mill,it had a 400 ci,265hp small-block.Always had a problem running
Regular fuel(it was designed for this),and only came with a 2-bbl Rochester
carb..
But what made this engine strong was the torque.
400 pounds of torque at 2800 rpm..
Imagine how fast my Dak would launch from the line..hmmmm!)
