My old motor was 8.6-1 CR and had OOTB Eddy heads and a Comp 555 solid cam.
Best on that motor was a 10.96.
Was typically in the 11.0 range though

A real low budget 440...all factory parts except for pistons, valvetrain and accessories. 1975 cast crank 440 w/ stock rods, .030 Ross flat tops with an actual 10.3:1 cr using 1039 Fel-Pro gasket, Ultradyne .588 solid flat tappet cam, ported 906 heads, M-1 intake, AED 850 Holley, Hooker Comp headers, 9.5" PTC converter, 4.10 Dana 60 all in a '70 Barracuda street car. 3" TTI X-pipe exhaust all the way back to the factory style tips. I have yet to reach the car's full potential due to suspension and carb tuning, but it has run 11.80-11.82 @ 116mph in full street trim on a 90+ degree day with crappy air. (All 4 passes that day were in that range.) I know the car has 11.60's in it when everything is optimized and decent weather, but still need that timeslip to prove it. For giggles, I entered the 11.80 timeslip information on this DA calculator and it came back with an 11.57 ET. http://www.dragtimes.com/da-density-altitude-calculator.php Like I said above though...I want that timeslip to prove it. The car is extremely streetable overall. We drive it all over town without issue.

Here's another scenario... Back in the early '90s we threw a '74 cast crank 440 into our 3775lb '64 Savoy to go have some fun. It was literally a $200 junkyard motor and trans. We left the stock pistons, rods, crank, bearings...everything. We put in a used .509 cam and lifters, Team G single plane intake, 750 Holley, TCI 10" converter, and 4.56 gears. The car ran 12.80's like clockwork. We then freshened the 452 heads and put on a Max Wedge intake w/ two 600 Carters. It ended up running 12.40's @ 108 mph. The engine would just not give up...it still ran when we pulled it in the late '90s for the 'good' engine. The short block is actually still under the bench in my parents garage. We all joked that it did not have enough power to blow itself up. Oh yeah...the compression worked out to be 7.8:1 in the good cylinders.
