The Mighty 396...NOT!
Wow; the 69's had all the class!!!
I have to say i've been a Mopar guy thru my whole life, but I still believe that my 396/325 Chevelle was one of the baddest 325hp cars to ever come off the assembly line. With nothing more then carb & timing tuning, all stock, it went a 13.97 @ 97mph with nothing more then a set of borrowed M&H slicks. I still have the time card, if I can find it.
With the big headers, a decent size General Kinetics solid cam, and a lot more work on the quad, I got it to run 12.85.
I'm not trying to put other cars/engines down by any means. I just think that a 200ish horsepower BBC is a joke.
