my Low dollar 318 hop-up project

Yep, 14.90's not bad at all. My 73 Challenger with the low performance 340 used to run 9.75's pretty consistently. That was a stocker with no mods.
yeah, I think if I could have went the 1/4 today, it would've ran a 14.7 - 14.6. My 1/8 dropped from a 9.77 to a 9.57. Unfortunately, weather didn't permit it. I doubt I will ever prove it as I'm going to make some changes to the car.
