Hey Hack. I remember when those came out. I think it was 1960. My older brother who was 18 at the time took me along in his 38 Dodge down to the local dealership and I watched a he salavated over the open hood. Didn't know exactly what I was looking at, but he explained to me about the two large 4 barrel carburators and the long ram tube intake manifold. What a beautiful piece. Happy 413 day to you as well.

That was a great engine! the truck version went into motorhomes of the day. I had one, I could run that thing WOT towing a boat all day and it never complained. Never went above about 65MPH and never got better than 5MPG. Cruise control was a big concrete block to set on the skinny pedal!

No we can’t. There is no date 5/00!
Actually I’m into anything GM and Chrysler. They both have tried to kill me a time or 2. Fords just leave me walking a lot, hate them!
I’m not sure why I thought we could have 5/00, I must’ve sniffed too much carb cleaner. Aww Denny, Fords just want to keep you in shape, walking is good for you.
