Whats the deal with 340s?

Dude, you just screwing with me ain't ya? Because I never said ANYTHING about 4.88's and 5200 converters for 13 second cars. WTF? what I said was you didn't optimize the combo's. You don't need that **** to run 13's. My Dart Sport went 12.90's with a 3.23 gear, junk clutch and crap carb when he bought it. How you guys go so slow with so much is stunning. I'm going to the track today, and I know I will be jaw dropped all day watching big brother engines go slow. I will see chassis that will run like they were tuned by a preschooler. It will be embarrassing.

Ok... I went slow with so much?? I spent 1000 on BUYING and BUILDING the 360. Tranny was a free used 727 load flite out of a Dodge Truck never rebuilt. 12.90's at almost 105 mph in an all steel Dart (nothing tuned on suspension) that weighed 3300 lbs without me in it and was driven 1 hour to the strip. Raced as I drove it. 91 octane pump gas, no unhooking headers, QS oil from Walmart (not your 120.00 5 quart horsepower making oil).... Now tell me how much your 12.90 ride cost ya???? how much to buy and build your 12.90 340?????? Tell me how I went so slow with "so much"???
