8.65 @155 sofar, 10:1 compression 572cu in(no gm crate) on 175 shot

The Paperweight has made the best pass of 11.46 in the 1/4. Was a full pass, because it wouldn't rev over 3000 rpm in 3rd gear. found out later that the exhaust valves were smacking the pistons. (the machine shop hosed me and didn't check this. though I'll take the blame for some of it too)
Since rebuilding it and putting smaller pistons in it the best I've done is 11.81. I'll have to find the slips to find the MPH and other times.

New best time....
60'----- 1.273
330'--- 3.667
1/8---- 5.693
MPH--- 121.16
1000'-- 7.455
1/4----- 8.955
MPH---- 149.85

Wow!! Thats getting it done for sure, very impressive Jim

I second that.

9.63 @ 135 is the fastest mine has gone with a 1.29 60'

The new streetable motor is more around low 11's.

11.44 @ 116 1/4mile

4000 lbs? Really?
Did you add weight to your cars?:)
I am curious as my brother had a 72 gmc sprint, with a bb, th400 and 12 bolt rear it went across the scales at just over 3400. And according to most sites the curb weight was 3350.

The 70 although I have never seen one on a scale is advertised between 3550 and 3800.

And my 64-65 Chevelles never weighed more than 3450 with me in the seat.

Not doubting really I just find it odd how the weights can vary by 600 lbs.:confused:


Oh and my best in a my own cars has been 11.52 @ 124 in my 68 Camaro. I have been faster in a friends dragster.
