Edelbrock / RHS heads, or go BIG block and put it to bed!
Hey wild&crazy...
That's 12 second mph.
Take it from me,I have been running a B body for over 15 years and it's always had small blocks in it for power.
It's going 12.89 at 103 with a 1.74 60 foot time.
It's really not that fast but it's worked it's way from 18 second quarters down to the twelves over the years and it all started with a smoking 318.
If i was using a small A body,it would have went about 4 tenths quicker at every stage.
Hell,it would be going 12.49 right now with the weight reduction and with more mph to boot.
Plus any gain in 60 foot makes it even faster.
It would be in the low twelves.
I only have around 390 to 395 horse and that's pushing it.
It's more like 380 with a ton of torque.
He has a fast car that hasn't gone any where near it's potential.
If he does the heads and carb plus the converter he could have a shot at the elevens.
4.56 gears will make it happen for sure.
