800hp 66' Chevelle Dragster Startup

This car is being built for pro street drags at the Portland International Raceway. The only origional parts on this car is the rear 3/4 of the body and the front 3/4 of the chassis. motor is a 498 cu in Somers Racing motor built by Archie Summers in Vancouver Wa. Ford 9 inch, Art Morrison 4 link and Lemon Racing headers from Cali. The smoke that you see coming from the engine bay is the paint burning off of the headers.i have been helping my friend with this car for 2 year and its almost done. will post more videos when completed.

sweet sexy ride... Have you taken it on the track?

[MrKcomstock]

@illestpunjabiny yeah we took it to the track last month. The driver was unfamilliar with the car but he still ran 10 second quarters. Once he gets the hang of the trans brake it will be in the 9's.

She looks and sounds great!! Nice Job!

[MrKcomstock]

@DukeNukem65 thanks man! I put tons of hours into this with dan. hopefully when he gets better we can finish it up this spring for the race season :)

[greengaurd]

sounds beast i hope my 460 will sound something like that, or louder haha

[MrKcomstock]

@greengaurd well im sure a 460 will be loud as hell this motoer is a 498 so theres not much diff. plus ours didnt have the mufflers on yet. once we take it to PIR we have to put them on for noise restrictions.

@MrKcomstock I just came across this video and then saw the dedication video to your friend passing away, i just wanted to send my condolences to you and thank you for keeping the videos up. Did he die because he was sick or did something happen? RIP Thanks once again for videos of the car/Dan.
