No cam, no gear, heavy car.
I know a guy who built the same engine in a 67 Valiant. It went 15.00 @ 92 MPH. He thought 13’s, not even close.

was a guess my 340 nitrous overcamed 70 duster went 8.65 with 3.23sg L-6014s no juice

 

[33IMP]

My guess was 8.80s, but the answer was revealed before I saw this thread.

Runs good congrats. Fresh air and air cleaner above the hood. What other tricks on that machine?

 

[pittsburghracer]

I’ll guess 8.66 around 80 mph.

Dougs D453 headers, MSD 6al box, Electric fan, TF2 shift kit. I wish I would have went magnum a long time ago!

That was the car in the other lane wasn't it...?

Oh yeah if you seen the video he went by him like he was standing still...

Educated guess? Twin turbo LS powered Olds cutlass. He wasn't in any hurry to leave the starting line, busy spooling up the turbos. High eight second car.

I got taken to GappleBees, evidently my boy thought I had a chance

 

[Curious Duster]

My duster 340 stock bottom end x heads 750 brawler carb.904 3:73 with 3,500 ptc converter ran best time @ 8.09 85 mph.

Thanks.
It sounds great and you got some great videos!

You think you could have kept it in 2nd gear?

My build is similar to yours. 5.9 Magnum, stock bottom end, honed, new rings and bearings, Edelbrock 2.02 heads, regrind cam .517, .215/.223, 8.75 -3.23. Air Gap, Smaller carb 650 AVS. I love the way it just keeps pulling up to 80 mph. I can't wait to take it down the track!! It will be my first time.
