7.9 liter V8

Since I know a Pontiac 455 is 7.5 liters, I was compelled to do the math...

440 ci = 7.2 liters.

So, unless you've bored her out to something close to 482 ci, 'taint no 7.9 liters under your hood. ;-)

My first car only had a 383 under the hood, but it was a 383 Police Interceptor engine in a 1970 Plymouth Gran Fury. My mom drove it with no clue as to what was there. My dad knew though. [g] And yes, I knew once I got my hands on it in '79. And it was no econobox...

I will have to give you two points: First, that is for sure a very nice looking car you have posted. Second, your math is obviously better than mine.

Are we destined to get into a horsepower comparison? All the Best!

You know, on second look, I'm not so sure I would agree you have a nice looking car. Seems a little tired to me.
