    whats your times and whats your set up.

    I havent ran mine, but hopefully this summer I will have it back together and take a trip up to portland to run it.

    my mods are:

    motor removed for weight reduction :D

    exhaust removed

    interior stripped (including pedals and steering wheel)


    actually I am running a 351W, with a wiend stealth, 224/224 @ .50 cam, with ported 69 302 heads.

    I dont plan on breaking out of the 15's. :bang:

    this is in my 67 that is.

    see, if you had not replaced your floor pans, then you could of added the fred flinstone option. :D

    lets make it optimal, running start, with tail wind, and down hill. you can probably open the trunk and doors to fully utilize the tail wind.

    Well, I have a 67 coupe that has run a best of 11.51@ 115 with a 351w stroked to a 377 with, preformerheads, c-4 5500 stall, and 4.56 gears. I hope to break into the high 10's in a few weeks. New stage 3 cainfields and a big notty solid roller cam. I guess I'll have to get a cage now. later Thomas
    Btw The times I posted is in stock trim with et street's. About 11.5:1 compression. The new heads should put it about 10.5 to 1 so I can run on pump gas and still run 10's. And if that does work I know where I can buy a 100 shot.

    you can always stick your arm out the window and flap. of course if you're good at this, you'll go in a circle.

    I have long arms :D


    65stanger, after much thought you can use the jamaican bobsled team. but all members must be in the car at the start of the quarter mile. That means 3 in the trunk, two in the passenger side, and the pilot (you of course) in the drivers seat.
