Nice ride you running drag radials??

[mc71454]

@bowtienut70 Thanks..Ran Hoosier QT Pro 28x11.5. Drag Radials worked, but not as reliable when track conditions started going away. This video was from 2005, car ran 10.30's in 2006 with a change to AFR 335 CNC'd heads and 1000HP carb.

Damn good run! Why would you put lower gears for? Unless you only want to race.. What cam are you running? I got 71 project going on and dropping the BBC in. Did you beef up the rotating assembly or is it all cast? Would you recommend me some tire/wheel combos that are dual purpose?

What's a good light to you?

[Jellysickle64]

Thats a sweet run, I want to the 427 in mine i still got the cast 350 in my 71. Still light it up tho one wheel wonder baby!

Thanks, yes a Big Block. Car weighed 3800 + 200 lb driver. Video is 4 years old. Lost 50 pounds on the car and changed heads, ran 10.31 at 130 through full exhaust and 2 1/2" mufflers to keep it real quiet. Motor is pretty tame with 12" of vacuum at idle and uses 91 octane.
