Kevin and Stefano,

-----Mr.Norms was the Chrysler performance dealer of all time,in my humble opinion.I also believe they probably had input into 440 darts,however,Arlen Vanke was also involved.He was given a 67 black notchback Barracuda and 440 to put together and evaluate for the factory.The thing ran pretty good too as I had a chance to buy it in 1968 from Arlen after the factory had finished it.Some kid,probably about like me,offered him a little more and got it.He was at Dragway 42 about two weeks later and scattered the engine all over the place.As I recall that old car sat around for ever after that with an empty engine compartment.I think the kid was from Wadsworth,Ohio or a town right nearby.Wonder what happened to that one?............Bill S
