Hello from WA... currently civilian, formerly Army, thank you for your service. Your slick is a year early for this site and your rat is too new + way too old and half the wrong Make, but glad to have you here anyway... now get back over to your 302 thread so we can help you diagnose...

Wait a minute...302 in a Ford/Mazda chassis... chevy dizzy... BW/Ford/Nash/Fat-Vette tranny... Dodge body... it's either trying to rid itself of the evil... or it wants to commit suicide from the embarrassment... ;^p
