The 'Quickest' A-Body Small Blocks

I started in F/PS and moved to E. Engine factored by NHRA
My best was a 14:50 flat. BONE stock. I will go along with the 13:89 and 13:90 after seeing who worked on the cars and knowing the Pure Stock rules. This just proves the potential of the cars. The E/PS record at TV was a 14:35 back then. I was just a dumb kid, but could have got there with a little help.

The Sox and martin ad sold cars, no doubt. I attended one of their seminars in Brookings, SD. Huge crowd!

Curt,

Regarding Jimmy Boyd and his 13.89 @ 101.17 in November 1967.

Jimmy was no slouch driver from Greenville, North Carolina. He was also the
top Chrysler Tech for Motion Performance out of Long Island, New York.

Jimmy took another 1968 Barracuda 340-S down to Deland, Florida in
February 1968, and won the NASCAR Winternationals at Spruce Creek Dragstrip.

Jimmy clocked a best of 13.01 @ 109.40 while winning Stock Eliminator.

It was the last NASCAR Drag Racing Division major event ever run.
