So, what engines were the Cyclone and Talladega running in 1969 and 1970?  Tunnel ports?  Boss 429s?  And were the Superbirds and Daytonas running Hemis?

         early 1969 tunnelport 427-wins daytona 500--- 429s started running by mid season--nothing sounds as good as tunnelport or hiriser at 7000+ to old ears!!! -john-oldiron
