I can "vouvh" for two.
Dan Stewards '69 Firebird. 461 CID. E-heads. 400 block. POS* Eagle cast crank, Eagle rods,Comp roller. 11.teens , including one 11.17 @ 124 on 87 octane. He DID burn a piston once due to the 87. replaced it and he's right back where he was. About 18K miles and 250 passes to date.
Rick Holladay's '65 GTO ragtop. 440 CID, 10.80s (on pump gas, went 10.70s on 100 w/some more timing). About 20K street miles and over 350 passes. Refreshed his old 434 last year with more compressino and a non-"street" cam, no longer used for street. 10.60s, headed for the .50s... The 440 is still in pretty good shape, he just wanted MORE...
FWIW
Jim
