I didn’t say that. You’re trying to measure dicks here and I don’t care.
Had I been a sissy boy I’d have put a powerglide in it and dropped the ET to right where you were. I’d rather burn the car to the ground and go play golf than do that and I hate golf. Hell, I’d rather go fishing than run a powerglide.
All that struggle made me a better tuner today.
Put a 3rd pedal in your car and watch it slow down. And then try and figure out how to get it back with non adjustable shocks and an outdated clutch.
I was at the track a lot back then and there weren’t many 9 second small blocks out there. Especially not at 340 inches.
