A$7000+engine-out service was just recently completed,and the car was given a clean bill of health. Our mechanic replaced a slightly worn camshaft and installed new lifters along with thenew centerforce clutch. The carburetors were also fully tuned by a Mopar expert. The engine was not dyno tuned, but an estimated 500 horsepowershould be on tap. The car is in excellent condition and is ready for the upcoming classic car show season.
