  21. yes due 2 nascar`s ban on hemi`s.Jr refers 2 the smaller car $ engin they were working on 404ci.this kellog crank engin would give him many victory`s in the 66-67 sesons of nascar including sears point in 67 were due 2 rules hemi`s could only have single 4 barrol and his extra small hemi`s gass millage put him 5 laps in front of 2nd place.67 was his best seson ever would have 2 look it up but i belive he won every race that year if the car didnt have mechanical problems mostly trans & brakes.
