An article illustrating that instead of whining about what the 70s did to automotive performance, they took matters into their own hands and took care of one of the downfalls. And it's a reminder that it's just a canvas - too many people are stuck on the notion that they're 'slow' in comparison. Most everything can be made better with effort.

That brought back memories. I did things out of order back in the day. I had a Crane Fireball cam out of my Falcon that I put in my stone stock Cobra because it was just sitting there. It did help.
But yes, people run down our IIs but they seem to forget in the end it is a 302W and responds well to normal engine mods in a light weight car.
