Quote"I don't think anything in the 60's did such a 0-60"
I can't remember ever doing a 0 to 60 test. The fellow that I bought the parts from had wheelie bars on his with the identical engine. It was not meant to driven on the street. They did have mufflers from the factory and 3 inch head pipes and dumps when you got to the strip. Factory race car. I think the classes they ran in were B-SA through D-SA (stock automatic).
The drill was to hold the throttle open (with 2000RPM stall convertors)with the brakes set and floor it and release the brakes to go.
There were other makes of cars in that class so they probably had similar engines.
Nothing like today's muscle and super cars.
