transports in Tx. were those things--the oil companies gave free propane to the 
transports as "overage" when they stopped it was amazing how fast they 
deaappeared. got about 3mpg.  

712 cu in 
Best as I remember 275 hp @2800 around 500+ torque at 1800 rpm 4 heads two 
intakes on crank one cam --two headed distribitor wmts
They used 5 sp trans didn't need two speed rears for hwy use used 3 speed rears 
for on-off
