Hey bro, all I heard was, "I can't afford a NEW car model with more than 6 cylinders, so I'm gonna build up an old crappy Olds"
My Chevelle will put your big block to sleep I'm sure, so your point is moot anyway.
This was a happy medium between my Civic which I have now (and is a snore) and a pretty much un-streetable '68 Chevelle.
