Of the 16 qualified cars, 11 had engines listed. 7 were BAE Hemi, 3 were AJPE Hemi, and 1 KB Hemi. 5 had no engine type listed. So at least 10 of the 11 were billet block engines. The KB could have been a casting, possibly. Boss Bird's 5.87 ET would have put it 15th. There were 21 entries. Record of 5.52 @ 263 MPH sounds reasonable. Minimum weight is 2250 lbs. Getting 250 lbs out of our car would have been fantastic.

Actually the car I was looking at weighed a tad over 2,300 lbs if i read correctly.
Professional stuff as opposed to back yard stuff like you and KRE run........big difference! Money talks!
