Ya, that was the 1st 99ci block, and they grew up fast.....
1350 in 1970,
1400 in 1972,
1500 by 1973.

For a time there in the 70's all those beasts were the kings of the
lake.....
1500's still win the top NMMA titles in the "under 100ci classes" , they're
done screaming when we say they're done screaming.

There's a '68 1250 near me that's powering an 80's vintage family ski-boat,
seems to be doing just fine out there.
