Default My best...

My car has full interior other than front race seats, could be street driven with the exhaust bolted back on and street tires, but I have not driven on the street since I broke-in this engine in March 2006. March 2006 in street trim with full exhaust including over the rear tailpipes, 265/95 M/T street ET radials and #62 D-ports it went 11.52 @ 117 (1.66 60'). After swapping converters and removing the exhaust I was able to get a best of 10.99 @ 121.7 (1.52 60') at VMP's PIP race 19 May 2006. 1 July 2006 I swapped on a set of Edelbrock aluminum heads. I have been running the same engine combo 463/E-heads since 1 July 2006. 300+ passes on the shortblock, 200+ passes on the heads

1969 Firebird, full interior, #3535 lbs w/driver
463 CID, 103 N crank 4.21 stroke, +.035 pistons, 73 2-bolt block
Crower solid flat tappet cam
Edelbrock aluminum cylinder heads
Q-jet on a Tomahwk aluminum intake manifold
VP-110 race gas
T-400, 373 gears, 30x9 Hoosier radial slicks @ 23 PSI

Quickest pass is 1.42 60', 6.55 @ 103 = half track, and 10.32 @ 128 = 1/4 mile pass

Fastest MPH is 129.9 at Cecil County, down hill...
