There is nothing like the pure of a 427.............

 

[Aaron Brooks Wolters]

You are so very correct Dave.

*cough* *cough* 331, 354, 392, 426 Hemi, 413 Max Wedge, wasn't there a 426 Stage II Max Wedge as well? That 413 with Cross Ram look badass too!

Jan, from the factory, the 440 SixPak was probably the quickest on the street of the Mopars.

 

[Lucky13]

The Six Pak looks sweet! 8)

But how was the gas mileage?

 

[Lucky13]

Gas milage!!??

 

[Bucksnort101]

That's a joke son!!! The joke always was that you could see the needle on the gas gauge move rather quickly when you floored it, on some of these muscle cars I'm sure it was true.

 

[Aaron Brooks Wolters]

4 gallons to the mile Buck.

 

[Bucksnort101]

4 gallons to the mile Buck.

I use that joke all the time with people, funny to see how many get it right away, and how many don't.

 

[Aaron Brooks Wolters]

Buck, if I'm not mistaken that's the mileage for an M1 tank.

4gmp, ok thats low, but not near as bad as 4mpg...

Ok, after a few pints and spending most of my controlling life behind a bar, than a wheel, and cuurently having a fre brews too nany in brum UK, The worst equivalent milage per unit I myself have suffered is 15mpl, and thats oold twostrok oil not petrol....

I fist steered and dented a Morris Minor at age 4; my dad did the engine, clutch gears and brakes then, and a MK2 Escort Estate 1.2L at 17 under supervision (it was my dads). Also driven a for less than a few 1000 kms, a Peugot 102, to learn and pass my test in, also a VW Golf 1.4L, a Vauxhall (UK biult and spec Opel/GM) Vectera 2L HiFi Estate, and at least 3000+km between Opel Vecteras (2003 to 2005 2.2L DI a 2L Turbo Estate-Finn spec) Peugot 207 (2006-Finn spec) in Finland.

But apart from whence I was in Finland, - Hyvaa Suomilainen, sinut parras rockia joo!
I have riden more milage in the UK on 2 wheels riding a... 1967 BSA D7 Bantam, an late 80's Yamaha RD125, a knackered Honda C90 1984 Suzuki GTX250E (twin cylinder baby Katana [not the 90's Japanese/Grey Market 4 cyl real baby Katana], little brother to the GSX400, forerunner to the GS500 'Goose',) and Honda Sky (big wheeled moped) excluding being on/in the back of many bikes and cars going somewhat fster than legally approved or not in a controlled forward direction.

 

[Aaron Brooks Wolters]

Razor, change mpg to gpm.

 

[Lucky13]

Just been watching a program about Ralph Lauren's car collection and the exhibit at.....b*ll*cks...Speed, Style and Beauty!

Lots of nice cars there, could only see one 'modern' car, the McLaren F1, in other words, loads of automotive perfection! 8)

[Aaron Brooks Wolters]

???

Have to say that those '71 Dodge and Plymouth have grown on me, did NOT use to like the style, must blame 'Burned Notice' and that black '71 Dodge Charger! 8)

 

[Aaron Brooks Wolters]

Jan, the R codes were 428s with the shaker scoops.

 

[Lucky13]

Aaah! Cheers Aaron!
