    Nice Pacer, Jed. Is there supposed to be a filler between the bumpers and the car or did it come with that gap from the factory?

    Big gaps to allow the bumper to collapse at a low speed hit and not hurt body.

    What 300 said about the bumpers. Although the V8 cars had a front bumper filler and dif spoiler under the bumper to aid in cooling that horeshoed in V8. LOL

    I think the guys that are running Eagles around switch to a FoMoCo carb that works perfectly. I don't know if it's the same engine in those...not a hard core AMC guy. But I DO like them.:yup:

    Alot of the Eagles had the same engine and carb set-up. Others had the Pontiac Iron Duke 4 banger. Both good engines, but I prefer the 258 I6, better performance and still good gas mileage.
