Default Re: Ken Veit's 69 Camaro runs 10.65 on GY Polyglass

'Ya know, somebody mentioned 512 CID and if that's so, let's call it what it is.....and not a 396 or L-89. People tend to get these F.A.S.T. cars mixed up with Pure Stock cars also. I kinda lean towards liking the Pure Stock cars more. These F.A.S.T. cars may have exhaust manifolds but they are also Extrude Honed to within an inch of their life and I would think these things probably take a pretty special camshaft with lots more duration on the exhaust side to compensate for the exhaust manifolds. As far as the Goodyear Polyglas, many of these cars are using an electronic traction-controlling device that's about the size of a pack of cigarettes and will fit in your shirt pocket. Now NHRA Stock Eliminator....there's the impressive class! True 396 and 427's running stock heads, intakes, and carbs with a 9-inch slick! A few of these things have dipped into the 9-second zone. I've always wanted to own and race a real "A" or "B" class Stock Eliminator car.
