Showed this to the wife.
She totally agreed with it.
Said I had lots of patience.

She rambled on about something else as she walked away. :?
She knows I have bad hearing. :wink:

Didn't do anything for my patience but I excelled at the other part.

Old boy I know has a sign in his garage that says " I don't work on cars I fix them " I always kind of liked that. Lee

When I worked for an Allis Chalmers dealer they taught us to write REPAIR on the ticket rather than WORK ON.

That picture is the result of early drag racing with automatic transmissions. Initially, the technique was to bring the RPM's up and drop it into gear when the light went green.

The high failure rate led to the development of the "clutch flite" and later, high-stall torque converters.

Their working on a 1964 Dodge Max Wedge 426 cross ram.425 HP.

64 Dodge yes
Carburetors are to close together to be a cross ram setup.
A friend has a 426 Max Wedge with cross ram intake,
the carbs are over near the fenders.
I'm thinking it might be one of the early race hemi's.
A friends race hemi had a carburetor setup like that.
