I think Gecker ran S/C with both of these cars, so that would be 8.90 with some extra in the tank.. You can see the #2 on the window with the S/C..

What's amazing is the Omni Charger weighed about 2750# and only had a 471" B1 motor. If I remember correctly,(old age) He won his very first attempt in this car in S/C..

The newer Daytona car was done by S&D Race cars and weighed in the neighborhood of 2400#. I believe that car was #2 S/C in the world a couple times and I think it had a 471" B1 in it as well.

He would put easily 400 runs a year back then.. up to 600 runs.. All low decks. I believe they only had aluminum main caps and maybe filled. Koffel would know better..
They would rpm at about 8400-8700 if I remember correctly..
