Thanks guys! Here is a pic of our group(Sac raceway). The grey camaro is mine. Im on my 15" drag tire set up. Normally on 18's .

As far as how much power I am making not sure...never been on a dyno of any type.

Rybar...have you taken your car to the track yet???

Thanks Scott...it was a blast for sure. Should be able to get it in the 11.6 range without much trouble. Probably will put a small kit on it to be able to run high 10's.

Can you tell me more about your engine setup? I'm getting my 68 Camaro this week. Mine has a sbc400 block - .40 over with a good hydr. roller street cam. Just wondering what to expect out of mine.

How did it hook up at the track? Any suspension mods on yours?

Sure...here is some basic specs...

408 sbc
AFR 195's
10 to 1 comp
Prosystems HP950
RPM air gap
XS274S..solid flat tappet
1 5/8 longtubes
2.5" mandrel xpipe


Hooks great at the track with the MT drag radials. Im running 2" Hotchkis drop springs in the front and 3" DSE springs in the rear. I also run caltrac traction bars and swap on some 90/10's shocks up front on drag days.
