saw an entry on the raceway results from their website that lists a '72 Firebird running a 10.908 @ 113 on Sept. 23rd. Brad Burton of Kirkland, WA
Here is a video of his car running, he is possibly a PY member too. Go to 17:40 on the video to see his car

Here is an article on the cars and his family:

Default 455 HO WD Lucy going together

Here's some progress pictures of the business end of my '72 455HO WD going together.

Engine has 67,000 original documented miles and is still standard bore after the freshening up (.005" over after hone). Pistons are Diamond custom cut and peeking out of the bore 0.015". Jim says this is good.

Jim Robertson from these Forums is building this engine.

We have a dyno date set for December 2.

Fun Fun!
