OK...So with your theory.
Take a stock full bodied 3,600# 440 Challenger with a non tricked stock 4 speed.
Put 12.5:1 pistons
A set of headers.
Lets say a Torker intake.
An electric fuel pump.
A solid cam with mid 70's technology, like the Racer Brown.
An Edelbrock carb(just because the Competition Series Carters were just fancy versions of the original AFB's and were of the exact same design).
Any gears you want.
Dual point distributor.
100% stock suspension.
Untouched 906 heads and the stock valvetrain.
With that recipe you are saying you would run 10.30's at 134?? Lets not forget, this was done in 1975 with just a regular guy building/tuning the car, not some guru....

I agree, this sounds almost 2 seconds off... And about 16 mph... Just sayin'
I could however, see a HEMI car getting close to that.
Cost NOT included, the pros for the design of the HEMI FAR outweigh the cons.
