Remembering 'Joe P.' If you turned 21 years old yesterday, I’d like you to raise a glass of your now-legal-to-drink favorite alcoholic beverage and toast the memory of Joe Pisano, who left us on the day you were born, July 19, 1991. www.nhra.com

Interesting about installing pistons backwards to change the thrust loading on the cylinder wall.

"58 Turnpike Cruiser 315hp Service Specs" per Cecil earlier on a TSB​

Hi Cecil

Thank you for the provision of the Technical Service Bulletins . This is of course the source for such facts , original from GM , Great!

For me , who has not been familiar with the subject for long , it is of course very instructive when I read bulletins like this . It's a shame in my opinion that there are errors in the forum's own library . As a newbie , you read this and of course believe it .

The one with the name Turnpike Cruiser from Chevrolet was also new to me , I only knew it from Mercury . I have never seen the fact that the pistons on the passenger side have to be installed backwards on any other engine . It was very interesting for me , to read these bulletins , thank you !

Greetings from Switzerland , Kurt

I thought there was something odd about what i was looking at! Thanks BJ

Canadian Strato Chiefs and a Beaumont....... ........where is this?

Hey Barry - first clue was the lack of 'wide-track' on the full size Pontiacs..... .
Next was the unmistakable 64 Beaumont grill.......
