-12.5:1 383
-ported sidewinders
-tunnel ram
-590 cam
-2800lbs

Assuming it doesnt have a crappy converter and totally the wrong gear/tire combo, if that doesn't run at least 10.70's (at a track that's below 1500'-ish elevation), there's something seriously wrong with it.

Fast68,
For now it has the wrong gear 4.56 and 31x13.5 slicks. I just bought the car in June and only ran it once and was disappointed with a 11.80@113.33. So I decided it was time to freshen up the bottom end and new rings, and new heads. I agree it should go quicker than 10.7 but I don't want to be too optimistic. I do plan on changing gears to a 4.88 or 5.13.

'69 Cuda stock 440-6pk bottom end, 9.8:1, 2.14/1.81 906's mild port, 3000lbs all in, CC.650/.650 290@.050 SFT cam, Team G dom w/adapter to 850DP, 727, stock front end w/90/10's, 4800 verter, Hoosier 14x32, 4.88's, l/bars c/overs

11.23@118 with bone stock 906's.

I think it would've gone quicker with a cam where the intake closed somewhat earlier for a bit more effective stroke/CP....was at 0 sea, knowledge wasn't the best back then, like running 4psi in the slicks!

My old DartSport had a low deck 451(400 block with 440 crank), MP 590 purpleshaft, ported Eddy heads, 727 with 8" ATI converter, 4.56 gears and 14x32 tires and weighed 3050# with me in it.

Ran 10.0's with a best of 9.96 in good air with a single Dominator.

Ran 9.90's with a best of 9.89 with a M1 TR and two 750 Quickfuel carbs. Extremely fun car, with 11.2 to 1 compression I ran pump gas on the street and mixed in a gallon of 110 octane as an additive. I'm guessing around 650HP.
I don't have any photos on this new computer.
