If I remember right, this thread is titled 'How fast is your tagged and street driven car??' :grin:A street car Doesn't have a cage and slicks.

1966 Belvedere II daily driver. 318 poly, Weiand 4503 inlet, stock exhaust manifold, TTI H-pipe, 2 sizes over on tires, 3.23 sure grip in a 742 case. 10.6 sec...in an eighth mile.
That quite a bit better than LVD, but Atco always is.
60 ft still a little sluggish. Do you have pulleys and race gas to step it up or are you satisfied with what you got?
Yes the Belvedere is now a 67 Coronet. I'm surprised you didn't know.
mines not near as impressive as most of you guys. I bought this car one year out of high school and have owned it for thirty plus years. the best i have been is 11.28 @ 120 miles per hour. I slow it down to 11.50 to run in n/ss. it has a thirty over 440, stock otb evilbrock 82 cc rpm heads and a stx 21 racer brown flat tappet cam. it weighs 3608 pounds car and driver, split mono's with cal-tracs. oh and it has a rollbar. I raced the car three weeks ago for the last time out this year going low seven twenty's in the eight mile. the engine is has over 500 passes on it and several thousand street miles. the only thing I have done to it is one set of rod bearings and normal maintance. I would like to build a new reliable low maintance engine over the winter that I could still drive around and put the car in the ten fifty range.View attachment 292264View attachment 292265
I'm finishing the build on my 64. It should be capable of running in the 7's in the quarter. I decided not to put a 25.x cage in the car. The fastest legally it can go is 8.50's. It's a gen3 aluminum 426 with a pair of twin 67mm turbo's. I am building it to do drag week and power tour.
8.5 is it. Don't want a funny car cage.

Mine does. Fast ones, have to have a cage. Otherwise you can't see how quick/fast it is.
