Owner Comments:
This is my sleeper, cruiser, tow vehicle, camping trailer puller, hunting vehicle, farm truck, etc. I originally ran all of the above parts except for a Weiand 8004 dual plane, ported 882 heads (1.94/1.50), and a cam dynamics 266 energizer cam (210/210@.050, .440/.440 lift) when I first built the shortblock...it ran 16.06@89.1 mph. My current ET is off quite a bit compared to the mph...too much weight and not enough gear to get this thing out of the hole very fast, but after the 60' mark it pulls hard. With the planned upgrades I should get in the mid 14's easily. I am suprised there isn't more '70's trucks in here...but you have a cool site here anyway. :-)
