I tried to get my guy to move half my money, but he doesn't like making change for a dollar.

I moved about half to a little more secure spot last week.

That should cover it

Ahh the 6-71 blower, brings back memories...

I'm pretty sure it was a 10-71 blower.
That was a Blown Hemi I remember

The most popular blower back in the day was the 6-71 blower which would do like 4-10lbs of boost. Go even higher and you are looking at burning alcohol, etc.

If you look at the motor I'm not sure it's a hemi, look at the valve cover - there is an air breather where one of the spark plugs would have to go.

Billboard say Hemi.

I totally remember this car being posted on CC.com.
Numerous members had cardiac arrests when he posted it there.

I believe he sold it later on.

Pullies can always be changed on blowers.
Overdrive, Under drive. Right?

Yep pullies can be changed but then it changes downstream items as well.

The photo just isn't close enough to tell. Can you tell if that is a hemi motor?
