It had the "tri-power" setup (three, two barrel carbs) with what they used to call "progressive linkage". Despite the best efforts by me and a mechanically inclined friend we could never get it to run right throughout it's RPM range under load. Ended up replacing the carbs and manifold with a single, 4 barrel setup and it went like a raped ape. That was a powerful car. 4 speed manual, on the floor. |
