I've heard stories where guys would coil up fuel line inside the fuel tank and 
then run it all through the roll cage so that it's super long and has that much 
more fuel. I also heard a story that they would check the size of only one 
cylinder, so they would make all the rest bigger except that one.

Back in those days I remember seeing the larger bodied cars like the Impala and 
such to match the big Charger and Galaxie 500 but I could be wrong.  Footage is 
rare before 73 I have found.
