Any ideas on increasing the torque on a 1974 472 without raising the powerband or spending tons of money?

If it's stock, open up the intake and exhaust first. kcnewell 03-23-03, 12:24 AM Originally posted by elwesso Put on slicker tires!!! :D :burn: The brain fart count rises!!:D Katshot 03-23-03, 09:16 AM I wasn't going to say it ;) kcnewell 03-23-03, 10:48 AM It had to be said!
