Re: 1959 Dodge Advert from Iraq, 81k( Now an article from Mopar Action)

I just got off the phone with Bill B. and he is happy with his Poly build in the 66 Belvedere. I helped him with a Poly recipe for his intended use and referred him to some machine shops in his area for the Poly build. He has a beautiful car and you can watch his U-tube video of the Poly idling as he shows you his car and engine. Cut and pasted below are the written comments under the video: He told me how the car really moves out from a 40mph roll onto the freeway and how his 262/.460” Cammed Poly smoked some guy in an import...he plans to change his 2.94 gears to a set of 3.55’s which should break the tires loose from a standing start. His 650cfm carb is probably running a bit rich and he indicated he needs more time to tune it...has about 500miles on the fresh rebuild.

A quick video of my restored 1966 Plymouth Belvedere II. In 2009 we pulled this out of my uncles barn where it had been since 1979! It actually started...as long as we had gas feeding into the carb (tank and lines were all plugged up). This has been a three year undertaking bringing it back. Still need to install the 'dealer a/c' unit. The motor is the original 318 (Poly). It has been bored .040 over, has 2.02/ 1.60 valves, some porting in the heads, reground cam to .462 lift with .262 duration, a cast iron 4bbl manifold from a `62 Poly, Edelbrock 650, TTi headers, and TTi 2 1/2" exhaust...producing a bit more power than before. HA! Thanks to Gary Pavlovich's guidance on the motor mods, this didn't cost any more than building a newer motor. Also thanks to my aunt and uncle for turning loose of the old girl so I could bring her back to her former glory.

Guess it could go either way, but in your case, why even mention 
Gary's name. He thinks it is Gary's fault, but like you said interpretation is 
up to the reader.

I think what he said is open 
to interpretaation, 
DJ.  He opens up his tech question by saying "I should have never called 
Poly guru Gary Pavlovich.  Now I'm 
rebuilding my 318 Poly for my '66 Belvedere".  He doesn't mention Gary after that, but he 
goes on to talk about a problem he has with the oil sending unit location on his 
4bbl intake or something like that.  I think it could be interpreted that 
he's saying he shouldn't have been tempted to build a high hp Poly because now 
he's in over his head in some areas and doesn't know how to proceed.  Kind 
of like, "I never should have looked at the dessert menu, now I'm over 
stuffed".  Anyway, I don't know that he's necessarily saying anything negative about Gary.  
But, as I said, it's open to interpretation.

Hey Gary,
I don't know what you did to piss this guy off, 
but it got you mentionede on Mopar Action(not in a nice 
way)
Dec.'s 
issue, pg. 92, Tech Topics. titled Hohm 
Boy. Don't understand why he says what he does, you have always been helpful any 
way you can, with not strings attached. I'm sure he must be referring to his 318 
Poly build?
