Vehicle Overview

Drove it off the showroom floor in 1968, a 17 year old kid who loves car, now a 69 year old kid who still loves cars. I drive it at least once a week to work and take it to the track maybe 10 times a year. Every time I take it out for a spin it makes me feel young at heart. Always been a hot-rodder right now I have over 2000 miles on this build. It's a PUMP GAS 547 KB water aluminum block, Indy 440-1 heads, intercooled F-2 running 16 psi, spraying methanol at 5 psi and exhaust out the back. All controlled by HOLLEY HP EFI, running plug near coil. I do all my own work including tuning, never been on the dyno. Last time took it out to ORLANDO Speedworld in March 2020, ran a 5.93 @ 118.55 eight mile and rolled thru the quarter at 10.00 @100 mph, believe more in it. Car weighs 3950 with me in it, if you do the math works out to 1023 hp. DO NOT want to cut up the car to put enough safety gear on it to run full quarter.
