Wonder if these two are related to Clyde...

Being a big block fan, I have your back, Darrell.

Mike, we big block guys have to stick together on this predominantly 69 small block / Z forum..

Answer: Torque.

Don't forget that couple hundred POUNDS of weight on the front end ...

cook_dw · « **Reply #18 on:** February 27, 2017, 06:23:17 PM »

They added the weight to the engine to help keep the front wheels on the ground from all the torque..

BSMIT59 · « **Reply #19 on:** February 27, 2017, 08:02:40 PM »

But Darrell while you're torquing up and holding down lil 302 done gone screamed away......far away down the track

Correct, as long as the displacement does not exceed 302 cubic inches!!!

You guys really have bought in to the 302 urban legend..

Sorry, the "Every Which Way But Loose" got me started. Now if I could remember "Any Which Way You Can" my evening would be complete.

Steve, you forget a very important part of the quote, "Did he throw two rods or only one?" Well to tell you the truth in all this excitement I kinda lost track myself."

I thought it was "did I fire 6, or only 5 (and so on). Big uns usually won't pitch 'em unless you get way over that 6500 mark often. I've got a nice windowed JH that mirrors that, where the piston took a "right turn, Clyde". Literally -
