Got the Transmission plan figured out yet?
Bring her over and we will address the clutch issue(s). That car could toast a few SD's I'm sure......... Dave

Glad to see the great Dyno numbers of the SD!
![]() Time will tell if the 17hp is enough to over come the extra weight they have to carry.....200lbs vrs. 17hp..... My bet is it will be a very good race. By the way can you fellows tell me how many total SD's were built? Wasn't it on the order of 400 or so cars in 73-74? Best reguards Kirk

What's the total of 455HOs in 71/72 F-bodies? I dont have the numbers handy but I'd imagine about 3 times as many.

and real easy and inexpensive to restore, and the parts are free, too! ;-)
I found the #s on the 455HO T/As: a total of 3,402 in 71/72. Dont know how to get numbers for the 455HO Formulas though -can't be that many. So for the T/As it's a little less than 3x the SDs. Last edited by njsteve; 08-27-2008 at 08:23 AM. |

OK, so that adds up to 5,804 total 455HOs for the 2 years, vs 1,296 for the 2 years of SD - about 5x the SD production. I feel so plain and common now. :-(
