Hey HemiDart68 what combo you running in that car? That car leaves real nice. For a 3750lb car that car runs some good ET. I can't wait till my 65 Hemi car is done should run some low 9's also.

OK! I surrender!!!

You guys are faster than me!!! You work harder at it than I want to, and you spend more!!! I admit it!!

I admire your effort, I really, really, do. But, in the end, if I'm dialed 10.70, and you are dialed 8.80, you've still got to chase me down. Your four link, CNC aluminum headed 550 incher has no advantage over my old, leaf sprung, iron headed 426 inch Hemi with NASCAR rods and other old style parts.

It is a fantastic post, as it gets everyone talking about these cars. I never get tired of talking about them, or watching them. You guys with the real fast ones are admirable. But, I also think the other guys, with the more "traditional" types are just as admirable.

The beauty of this class is that it gives everyone who is into those cars a place to race. I luv 'em all.....from 12 second maxies, Fairlanes and 409's to the 8 second, $30K 572 inch Hemis. In my case, it gives this old guy a place to race against others of his ilk.....I don't have to spend all of my retirement (what's left of it, anyway), and I can use all of the antique parts I have had sitting around for years (which I do!) and get out there and show the folks how we used to do it. What is cool that among us old, balding, half blind soft-in-the-middle geezers there are youngsters getting into it and and enjoying these old cars. Even more cool is the fact that there are a lot of spectators who enjoy watching us do it!!

Let's not take this, or ourselves, too seriously. Let's race and have fun.

I just discovered I sold you some of those parts in the early 80's.

605 Cubic inch, Best machine built the motor. Heads are the older MP castings CNC'd by modern, with a modern cylinder sheetmetal crossram. Made 1001 hp 807 pds of tourqe. I still street drive the car, that was the first pass off the trailer on this combo. Tried a couple things on the second pass, and went in the wrong direction. I am excited to try and work with it a little this year and get it dialed in, if i dont sell it.

---

The combo you have seems to be making great power...I would think there might be a 8 second time slip there with some tuning.

---

but its not a true NSS car with a sheetmetal intake.
if i put a sheetmetal intake on my dodge id be 8.80's-8.85.
my new motor will still have a aluminum crossram on it and be in the 8's and im not even minitubbed.

Its a sheet metal crossram, not a tunnel ram. its hardly different then a MP crossram, i wanted it becasue it looked cool. I didn't build it too race your definition of true NSS. I wanted to run CC events. Thanks though, im sure ill never be as cool or as fast you, but ill try my best.

Im betting my crossram is alot more reflective of a factory intake design, then the indy bathtub inline (crossram) you run.

Not as crusty as yours, but still NSS legal.

your tubbed and have the wrong intake,sheetmetals are not allowed for NSS, so sorry your out for NSS.

your good for AFX though.
as you can see i still retain my stock wheel wells,no tubs here.
sorry my trunk is not crusty, its clean as a whistle.
just remember every knock is a boost!
