T3's didnt even get 351's.
they were strokers. the best thing the AU did was put some decent life into the V8's and further refine the OHC I6. |

That is one good point I have heard is yes mechanically they are good, hence why I am umming and arring over steping upto a B series because I have heard/know of a few problems people have had with them, but I have also heard good stories. The huge problem with the AU is that it 'bummed out' in 1998 the day it hit the showrooms that cheese cutter for a grill those wheel covers, its saggy , it was just depressing, the XR series no engine improvement over the EL's and looked like a bug eyed monster, on the track it was downright depressing : |

On the track? as in V8SC? the only thing they have in common is some panels, almost nothing else. AU XR's look way better than any other one before it, (except the '67 of course) Whatever rocks your box i guess....
