60 1.86
1/8 8.07
1/4 12.68
MPH 105.29

next run:

I think he was one foot in bed as he typed.LOL He ran 2 12.564's and the carb needs some work as it fell on it's face at launch. Lot's more in it,even if the short block has been on the road since 1996(actual mileage ??) and the trans is 125,000 miles fresh. Now we need to get it into the low 12's.
