It was in HPP many years back with a little more mild combo-

It ran a 13.1 the day after the shootout, which is the best it did with that setup.

Still running a very similar setup, but heads have mild porting, hydraulic roller cam, GM30 3000 stall converter and 3.73 gears currently- pretty much everything else is the same. Oh yeah, G7014 Goodyear Polyglas tires replaced the M/T Drag Radials.

Still totally streetable- I'll hop in and run a few hundred street miles at a time without touching a thing after being at the track.
