It’s fast.

Surprisingly powerful, just a stock 421 HO with compression dropped to 8.82:1. Has just log exhaust manifolds and a 2-1/2” mandrel bent H-pipe exhaust with Dynomax Super Turbo mufflers. No head porting or port matching whatsoever.

Really moves out even with 2.56 gears.

I’m really tempted to buy a Dragy now to get some 1/4 mile data, hoping for high-13s.
