@5191keith It's a factory A/FX race car....It's badass. A prostreet 800 hp muscle car is less badass than a factory built race car from the '60s, like a '68 Dart HEMI factory race car LO23. Everyone has a loud muscle car.

@dhanrollz No your 390 pushs little more. about 385-405hp at the crank

i have a 1968 ford galaxie 500 with a 390 in it and an edelbrok 750 carb sittin up top... galaxies are some of the most bad ass cars because they weigh in at aroung 3600 pounds (only 600 more then a newer mustang) and have big ass engines usually... mine cranks in around 350 HP and 427 foot pounds of torque, i break motor mounts all the time and i run around 11s or so in a 1/4 mile... galaxies rock

we are working on this with a 63. it won't be like the nascar, more modernized... disk breaks etc.. but you are right on. once you've stood next to a running cammer the regular FE might as well be a honda 2.0l
From 60' on it outran all your Chevy's...

I had one of these cars in 1964 and ran it for a year...this car is a "DOG"...poorly tuned and even worse for the driving and setup...go home..put it away till you can learn how to drive it the right way...

@raginroadrunner Read the description, it isn't my car. I just happened to catch it on film while I was there. It was not the greatest launch but it ran a high 12 or low 13 second pass if I remember right. Pretty good for a big heavy car like that with a poor launch in Phoenix, AZ where the Altitude Density was like 5000 ft at this time. If your car only ran for a year it was because you don't know how to take care of or fix a vehicle. Not my problem. Thanks for the nice comment.

Wow.... This wasn't a sock motor or was it? More likely a side oiler. I crave details

Man I wish I could give you details. I just saw it and video taped it. Don't know a thing about it.
