Well it only took a year and dealing with a few trials and tribulations. I got well into the 12's and that car has more in it.

Here it is:

R/t .259
60' 1.949
1/8 8.26
Mph 85
1000 10.754
1/4 12.86
Mph 106.66

Guys, I'm so excited right now!

It is Pretty much the same combo, except taller tire, dialed in the carb and cooler day. Prep was pretty bad which is unusual Byron

Mabey a little more converter and 1.70 sixty foots and your car will run in the .40's or .50's. Nice ride.
