That was brought up at one of the drag racing seminars in either 1976 or 1978 at one of the seminars in CA back then by Larry Shepard or Tom Hoover devil


It's a good possibility it was this Hemi 'Cuda. This photo is after Car Craft Magazine did its initial testing then later turned it into a drag car (Project Hemi Cuda).
