They were a tire smoking torque engine that got decent gas mileage, (I had one in a 69 Impala wagon that actually achieved 16mpg) If you haven't driven it much give it a whirl it might really surprise you.
Thanks for the info. The little bit I did drive it seemed plenty "torquey", but without knowing the rear gears in the dually, I assumed it may have been that.

Money talks. Would be nice to see a proper resto on it.
