charge-it

Well, after sitting dormant for over 6 months I decided to fire up the old 318 in my 68 Charger one more time before pulling it out. Unbelieveably it started fairly easily. It has an ersom cam, aluminum 4 barrel intake, eddy 4 barrel, and open headers. Please excuse the wife, she always giggles when I ask her to try and be serious...

charge-it: No wonder your wife laughed! It's a small block. --- Her sewing machine has more power!

Put a stroked big block in it and she will be cringing in the corner begging for her Mommy when it's running!

Just teasing. the car looks great. What are your plans?

Nice sounding charge-it. I had to fire my little motor up today too. Nice weather and it sounded so good  ;)
