Here is my salesman pitch to a potential buyer in 69 who couldn’t afford to swing with the big bore cats,
“son, this is the highest power standard six sold in America and it is so modern it produces an incredible 175 horsepower per carburetor barrel, that is double the horsepower per carburetor barrel of that GTO you were looking at on the other side of the showroom! Imagine how much power this here OHC would make when you put on a nice big Holley!!”
