Don Keen Mustang????

That 289 gets with the program and how does that motor make the torque to leave like that??

[FireSale]

The "Leaving like that" thing is called Cal-Tracs. As in John Calvert.
This particular car has quite a pedigree. Read up on it here:

I believe Alex D. had something to do with the carb on it. Not sure.

In the interest of accuracy,,, they're actually called Cal-Tracs. Don't take my word for it, check out their website or look at their decals.

I know. The box is in my garage. My auto correct did that and I didn't catch it. I'll edit the post.

If the car in FireSail's link is the car you are talking about, That's a 428 4 speed car. Eric Waldo ran 1 like it, haven't seen it lately though.

I think he's referring to the '65/'66, not the '69.

Seen in ND running 10.20's in SS/KA is strong to run that fast in SS/KA that is one reason for the wheelies also good working suspension

Lets not forget Kip Martin ran 10.20s in SS/L and as fast as 1.30 60 foots at altitude tracks such as Pomona. With a truly legal 289, and these engines were far from high dollars pieces. In my opinion he was a master with the clutch.
