Oh yeah, (hesitate to add this) later in '74, the back seat of that 62 was being used with regularity. Bob Seger's "Night Moves" still strikes a cord that makes me smile. :)

That's true, excellent reading material. What's cool about that add is it shows a complete "Racing Crankshaft Kit" for the OHC 6's. When I bought the 2262's I also bought a ring kit, Performer...

Yup, that's where my 2262's came from around 87 and I think the price was similar. Receipt is long gone.
