  1. Having owned a six-pack, it is cool as hell. However it really was a bit of overkill and you could get the same go-fast motivation from a single big holley 4-barrel. Of course I was always second or third owner, I was just starting grade school when this came out. So my experience was tempered with using old hoopties with god only knows how many miles on the body. My Dad and his buddies who ran them when they were new were of the opinion that you really had to run a hot cam and have open exhaust to take full advantage of the six-pack, just plopping it on a stock engine didn't do a lot. That engine looks to be a long way from stock, if they knew what they were doing then it's going be a bad-ass.

    1. Never owned a 6-pack. But I have owned several Holley 4 barrels. I loved the big engines. Primarily a Chevy owner most of my life. That engine does look like it is heavily modified.

  2. I am unabashedly in love, I would marry that and provide space in my bedroom for her and her name has to be Lucille....

    I had a 1969 Dodge Coronet with a 440cid and a six pack carbs and it was a beast and a half!

    1. Make sure you let her cool down before you try any of those 'backdoor' maneuvers you fantasize about.
