Bill Walton, Hall of Fame player who became a star broadcaster, dies of cancer at 71


Basketball Hall of Fame legend Bill Walton laughs during a practice session for the NBA All-Star basketball game in Cleveland, Feb. 19, 2022. Walton, who starred for John Wooden's UCLA Bruins before becoming a Basketball Hall of Famer and one of the biggest stars of basketball broadcasting, died Monday, May 27, 2024, the league announced on behalf of his family. He was 71.



"I am sad today hearing that my comrade and one of the sports world's most beloved champions and characters has passed," Julius "Dr. J" Erving, a fellow Hall of Famer, wrote on social media. "Bill Walton enjoyed life in every way. To compete against him and to work with him was a blessing in my life."

So the Marti Report will include the information specific to how your car compares to other Shelby GT's and not just to the total production of GT Mustangs?

There used to be a list (as of 2009) of early 1967 brass tag cars (delivered until Dec. 1966) on the FE-Forum listing Fairlanes, Galaxies and Mustangs with the brass tag numbers first digits (last digits removed for obvious reason).
I counted 20 on this list for the Detroit area only. The listed ones were mostly for the 427 development, 14 of those showing specific 427 engine test usage, 2 for drag tests, some for highway use.
Nothing with a word Shelby..

With the right tire, grip and driver the breaking of the small in-out will be really easy starting at 425-450 hp ask me how I know ;-) ok I have some small blocks with more than 700 hp where even the big in-out will not last anymore.

Quote from: Kent on May 24, 2024, 12:48:21 AMI had to build some small blocks with the big in-out so that's why I asked. For a small input shaft the engine is very strong and the risk for a shaft failure is high. I just asked as I like the car.
I don't think that the 67-70 TA high horsepower 289/302 equipped cars used the big in big out trans.Consequently I don't think breakage was a big issue.
