:toothy7::toothy7::toothy7:

 

[ph23vo]

you peeked at another mopar board!! .... yes 14:95@92mph! ....................................................................................................... my old A body 68 340-s street tires thru muffler iron manifolds 12;70,s @ 108 oem long block except for a valve spring switch! LD, 750 DP,4:56,s dan

Yes I did lol. I'm c-barge on For C Bodies Only. Your car is really nice and very rare being 1 of 2. I'm amazed at how fast it ran. I wonder what it would do with simple bolt ons like HP manifolds and even lower gears like 3:91s?

 

[ph23vo]

i think with tuning/driving [only 3 passes on it] it should be in the 14.50 range.. i,m not modifying it so maybe with 3:91 gears.. low 14,s tops.. still fun! dan

 

[ab7fh]

14s from such a big car is definitely impressive. Calculator shows it takes 267hp at the wheels to run 92mph with your 4400lb weight.

That's a cool sleeper.
FWIW, my 3500# 383 Challenger went from 15.2's to 14.40's when I switched from 2.93's to 3.91's. (It was built with the 3.91's. I used the 2.93's for highway mileage.)
