Just how quick were the 273 Commando's in the Quarter-Mile.

For 1970 NHRA Class > L/Stock
We upped the Gears to 5.13.
But the Valve's started to float 'wildy' getting into Top-End.
We switched to {non-legal} Racer Brown Valve Springs {Single-Coil w/Damper}.
My Mother was down into the 13.70's @ 102 MPH.
Again, she had no trouble at all in Class.
But in Stock Eliminator 'Money Class', the 'Top' L/Stock cars were running 13.20's @ 105 MPH.
The hot cars, were the 1969 Camaro 'convertibles' with the 350/255 HP engine.
