No clue of what my current 68 RR with a 479ci/383 6bbl will do,
{same combo basically, less cam, less converter, milder ported heads, less gear etc.
than car example below, that ran in the hi-9's}
BUT; it's more set up for handling, driving here on country roads etc.
it's not really good @ weight transfer for drag racing, no drag radials or slick "YET"
but I could disconnect the sway bars & loosen the shocks up,
put some slicks/drag radials on it, "that's if I ever finish it",
hell I have thousands of $$$ in parts to install still...LOL
{procrastination at it's best, I'm thinking it won't ever be done}
I'd guess if I could get it to hook, radials etc. & have decent air, decent track,
low DA, a little @ track tuning
It may run in the low 11's with all things good, somewhat respectable
for something not built for drag racing...
BUT;
My last Silver 68 RR 3520# with a 479ci 383/4.15" 0.040" over,
Alum head, roller valve train, 4200 stall, MVB 727tf, CalTracs, 4:10's etc. etc. etc.
A true driven street/strip car went N/A 9.77 @ 135 Sac. Raceway
on drag radials, drove it to the track albeit only like 12 miles each way,
I ran it with full 3" Flowmasters exhaust out the back,
I drove it about 20K+ miles over about 8 years,
allot of cruising, harassing the youth, in Sac. & Contra Costa Co.
with a few blasts out in the rural areas, if you get my drift...
But with a 300 shot of Top Gun N20 plate kit, Dominator same otherwise,
it ran a best of 8.58 @ 156 at a test & tune day mid July
no track prep, kind of greasy Sac raceway 100* heat, DA was about 3500ft
Car only had a roll-bar they would stop me after a couple of runs,
that were quicker than 11.50's, they'd let a couple passes slide & then stop me...
I would do allot of test & tune session 660 & 1000ft, so I wouldn't get hassled as bad...
I've stepped back from the track allot,
way too many other things happening lately,
life gets in the way, kids, business, elderly relative needs,
funds get allocated to other projects & time constraints,
seem to always get in the way now...
I live vicariously thru allot of the guys on here,
I think...LOL
I think I still know my stuff, I just don't practice what I preach as much now...
I drag raced for over 35 years, before I stepped away, mainly because of costs &
now I kind-of got drawn back in...LOL
I'm not impatient, like I was when I was much younger...
I've had much faster cars, than either describe here too, but nowhere near as fun...
I've had some very fast Brand X street/strip cars too, but won't go into that here...
carry on
