Wow! Where are you from? I see MO, but do you ever come to the Ozark doorslammer shootouts? That 37 sounds like it would be good for Outlaw here.

Well, my 69 did (pre-turbo) 170mph on a chassis dyno @ 6200rpm. I have had it @ 6500rpm (with everything the same) on a.....ahem....."desereted highway".....ahem! So what is that with the wind drag? 155ish?
With the turbo setup, no top speed blasts, but 10.9xxx at the strip on slicks.

i am up by kc.i've been down to ozark and just dont really care for it,we ran outlaw pro street with it last year.we over worked it last year and i spent acouple weeks rewelding the chassis back together(strees cracks)making an 8's car run 6's,it would 4.60-4.50 1/8th mile all day.

[ProdigyCustoms]

Well, my street racer is kinda quick for what it is. For a all steel (glass hood), stock railed, mini tubed, full interior, 400" SB, pump gas car that can go anywhere, she runs bottom nines. It's tore down now for a couple minor changes to the driveline, and a Chris Alston subframe, if it loses a couple LBS and gains a Couple HP, she could see 8.99. It's 3450LBS now, hoping it is 3300LBS when back together.

Why didn't you like it? There is a new owner this year also, so things may be a little different.
Pics of your car?

[MrAngry]

hmmm... never ran any of my cars at the strip, but I have taken them up to speed every now and again.

- 1968 Dodge Charger: 135mph (then I got scared and backed out)
- 1997 Saab 900SE Turbo: 122mph or so...
- 1969 Pontiac Grand Prix 428 SJ: NO IDEA - just got the thing.

[hiwayman]

rocket my 69 ran 10.1@139 is there any chance seeing your 37ford 6.90 @190 our topdoorslamers run mid6s sometimes, 6.90 prostreet iv just keeled over

[rocketman]

i'll have to look to see if still have the time slip.that was with a race motor not street motor.the car is a dble frame,tube chassis.

**delete** (it was just too easy)

Eternity carried me to 125 with her old 350 in er. We'll see what she can do with her little improvements, once she's broken in.

[grand_marquis_gt]

Well, when I put the 4bbl and 1.7 roller rockers on a stock longblock 302 (the same motor/trans she rolled outta teh factory with) my top speed around the beltway in Atlanta was around 115-120, and didnt really seem like there was much left.

Once that new motor is in, watch out!

[Bigblue73]

I'm kind of embarassed ... I only went 13.30 @ 104 at Indy on the Power Tour last summer.

[Elusive R]

Oooh,oooh,that almost gives me a woody.

I was thinking along the same lines, but I think I'll just leave it at Whoa!!!

[formula]

At the track.....i'm gonna bet....mid 15s. I've never had the guts to run the thing.

On the highway....I've gone 100+, but forget the exact number. I had to calculated it out, as my speedo only runs up to 100.
