Built from a 455 BBB. Check out the current issue of Popular Hot Rodding magazine.

(probably out of the budget for the Roadmaster though)

It's where you go hang out & read the mags for free when you have some time to kill. :)

Yep.

One of my fav places in downtown Kingsport. Sells newspapers from big cities, mags, hotdogs, popcorn, & soda. Had a few pinball machines back in the 70s. The owner used to drag race 50s Corvettes way back when. Owned a Lingenfelter modded Corvette. Great guy to talk to. Gonna miss it when it's gone.

It would be interesting to see what kind of power it made with a streetable build instead of a dyno exercise. 14:1 compression, a 272/280 cam and epoxy filled water jackets make it a little impractical.
