I dropped a 427 s/o in my '56 Vicky years back just to beat the kid whose father
owned the local Chevy dealership and thought that "nothing could be a Chevy!"
Opened up a big o' can of whuupass on him and his Camaro. Gave him two
rematches; he's still pouting over that and I (of course) mention it to him when
we run into each other. He now owns the business. Damn I miss street racing!
