to stroke or not to stroke?

This is what’s in my street car….and yes, it is street legal and street driven quite a bit. I drive it to the track more than I trailer it (just for fun), and I race about 3 times a month. I built this motor to make reliable power, run on pump gas (although I switched to e85), and not need much maintenance.

67 Barracuda, 410 cubes, pump gas friendly 10.8:1 compression,
ported Edelbrocks, small roller cam that is easy on parts (248/254),
small 750dp carb converted to e85, Victor intake,
727 with a PTC 8” converter, Moser fabricated MO875 rear, 4.10 gears
275/60R15 Hoosier drag radials, Caltracs,
Dynomax 3” bullets, 3200#’s with driver

Current bests in street trim are: 1.43 60’ times, 6.67 @102mph in the 1/8, 10.54 @ 125.6mph.

Nice car and times. It kills me to see a 10.50 street car, the last time I had an old mopar muscle car if you were running a 10.50 it was in a flat out drag car. These were few and far between in 1988 but they seem like the norm today. This is what I'm shooting for with my project car, something fast and fun that I can play around with.
