Only had it on the road 1 time so far. Headed out with open manifolds not fun. Went about 1 mile turned around. Headed back about half way back the throttle return spring took a short trip to somewhere . (other than on the carb) throttle went wide open. ( fun ride) realized it and shut it down coasted to the driveway . installed 2 springs. Drove it back into shop. Hope to have interior put in on Friday then exhaust. Then drive the wheels off it! So far motor runs very well starts easy. Slight lope the idle.courtesy of Gary P. thanks buddy! Car rides smooth handles easy on the short trip we took. I had never driven the car till that day . I bought it as a rolling shell. And started stripping and fixing. From: 1962to1965mopars@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:1962to1965mopars@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of D J

Haven’t taken any but if you would like have a conversation w/ gary p. I had a 273 block and my poly block side by side only difference was a couple of water holes in the deck which could be drilled w a ¼” drill bit . obviously the cam is different but only because it is I,e,I,e,I,e…. instead of I,I,e,e,I,I,e,e… but I tried a la cam and it worked just fine if you wanted to turn a poly into a la. Don’t know why you would. I was looking at building a360 w poly heads. Just cause I had a 360 laying around and like the poly head design.no major machine work required. Granted you cant change just one component but if you change everything touching the heads (intake exhaust ,cam) it can be done. May not be practical for most, just us who like the odd things. Why people call the poly a wide block ill never understand. The heads are a little wider. But it fits quite well in a 67 valiant. I will have to build my own headers, but , that will be a nice winter project. Here try these From: 1962to1965mopars@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:1962to1965mopars@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of Herb
