number crunching a 72 TA...
My buddy just purchased a 72 sight unseen and what an adventure.
She doesn't have the original block sadly but we wondering what else she has and what the block may have come from.
It is really hard to read the # beside the water pump but at least it has the 455 stamp:
1KN (5 or 8) 13624
Has a 4 speed munci that is loud as hell - are they supposed to be? Seems to shift fine for the short drive from the transport truck:
C27151WJ
The intake is much more experimental looking than my 74's:
Winters 488945
qjet:
7040562 2273
She is pretty ruff around the edges, prolly paid too much but it is still exciting to see a unicorn like this around here.
Thanks!
