But..... If you plan to compete in the FAST or F/S series, then the car must be built within the rules...... Meaning no headers or slicks or intake manifold(not a concern with a 6bbl).
It is more of a trick to run 11's with a stock stroke 440 in a b or e body when you have to run exhaust manifolds and bias ply re-pop tires.


I already know . Been there , a little.
The car i chose to put a killer hemi in is cool and can be real fast.
Between lack of time and scared to blow a big investment of an engine, - i havent run it
to its fullest potential.
So , if im gonna insure a car , i want to be able to drive it on street.
Id rather play with the fast guys at around 11:50 , thats where its most competitive. Imo.
i learned a little about cracked heads and tryin to hook , etc.
its also fun having a stock appearing car and beating people up at a non fast event.
Not many people see the class and are baffled.
