Of all God's creatures there is only one that cannot be made the slave of the lash. That one is the cat. If man could be crossed with the cat it would improve man, but it would deteriorate the cat.

  Nope, the ONLY power under the hood of MY GTX, is the Modified 440 engine! 8) ;)

  Std. hydraulic 4 wheel drum brakes (11" up front, with 10" out back, because of the switch from the Dana60 rear end, to the 8 3/4 rear end). Doesn't even have power steering either, unless you count that the power is BY ME! ;D The P.O. also put a slightly smaller Grant steering wheel on there and THAT doesn't help to turn the wheel either. I may go back to a standard size wheel. The Torqueflite has it's advantages, like being able to take off from a dead stop, on a hill. When I had my 66' Charger with the 383/4sp/posi, I had to stop on a hill once, because of a stoplight. My brother was with me and I told him, this wasn't going to be good. Of course HE didn't know why. It hadn't been raining long and the  oil hadn't washed off the road yet. The light turned green and I started to try to go, but even though I eased off of the clutch, the rear wheels started spinning and I had a heck of a time going up that hill. Now, maybe if I had just "lit them up", things might have been different. :D
