Re: [Amc-list] Rambler six comma fast

[Wrambler242@xxxxxxxxxxx]

I always thought a six with an aircooled warner auto would make a slam dunk, can't get much simpler engine trans for a bucket!
   I'd love to see pics if he ever gets any up.
If it pushed the American to 14.20 it surely would out a bucket into the 13.s.
Way fun in a little bucket.
