So is all this wisdom reflected in the new, second printing of the '67 TIM&JG?

Re: Big Block Hoods on Small Block Cars

this subject has been discussed many times over the years. Per noland adams vol @ technical restoration book, big block hoods on small block cars were installed only 3 days end of feb 67, early march from approximately vin #12128 thru #12550, the original mold had a small tool accidentally installed in it, so st. Louis ran out of ''good hoods'' until the vendor corrected the problem. The plant elected to install big block hoods vs. Shutting down the line. People thru today changed the hoods often. I have seen three original cars that fit the above

thanks very much jim.
