... under an inch of grease.

Now all I have to do is guess what has been done/modded on my 360. I thought it was odd that my wagoneer could spin those 29s so easy. :thumbsup:

Unless you see signs of any HiPo stuff otherwise on your rig it may have just been the local rebuild shop? Call'em see if your lic plate/VIN is in their past work order files. Or it could be just another one'a them "Powered By Decals" things.
Sorta like wearing Harley T's, chains, boots but gee ran out of money at the HD "boutique" dealer to actually buy a bike so no I don't have one yet but I'll be back andit'llbebadass.... ;)

Let us know what ya find out. Even if it's not super popped and just a recent rebuild it's a plus. :thumbsup:

No, it's not that recent, or super popped. The sticker was on top of a little rust, but all that and the rust has been sanded off already and repainted with ceramic engine enamel after I took the pic earlier. All I know of right now is it has a nicely tuned MC2100-D (@ 14mpg ) and some pretty stiff compression. A mild cam at best, but it's hard to tell because it's idling a little rough right now. It does make me wonder though. I'm fixing an oil leak under the valver cover right now, checking the rocker arms/push rods/valve springs/etc., then new HEI and wires. :thumbsup:
