Can i get in on this? I never seen a stock 340 run in the 12's, or big block for that matter, can't get the traction with street tires. Thats how we used to beat the big blocks with our 340 on the street, they would smoke um.
If your big block competition couldnt launch the car without going up in smoke...they didn't know how to drive. I've got a 340 4-speed Demon, and my old '68 H.O. GTO would pass that Demon in 3rd like it was standing still.
