First -- WELCOME! Nice Impala!

I have one question - and I'm no "tuner".... but those A/F numbers look pretty "lean" up in the RPM band... and leaner yet at peak torque...

Anyone??

Welcome aboard!! Very nice ride!:thumbsup:

Welcome!! Nice ride!! :cheers:

I have been told the same on another forum and questioned my engine builder about it. I was told It had to do with how the dyno pull was performed If I recall correctly

I love the Impala 61's & 62's simple for the smaller body. I want a 62 so bad. keep her looking good. :hail:

sweet!!!! love the early 60's impala's.

Very clean ride my man!!:thumbsup:
