NHRA U Stock dump that clutch

[Shadylane]

64 Impala SS (maybe) 283 2bbl NHRA 170 hp. Minimum weight w/driver in U/S is 3570. (Class Racer Info)
Something different. I like it.

Former U/S record holder also! Sorry Yac, I had to get that in.

Yeah, I was writing the line about better cars, and thinking what would be smaller, lighter etc. Thought of the Fox and then I actually had one. We ran V normally but we wanted to take advantage of the altitude correction at Tucson, with the turbo , so we did the U deal there.
Anyway ...Sounds like we may have a reunion going here..How about Paul Wong? The Witch Doctor? Koski?....

How about this combo in a 66 nova. R/S 283/195/164 3122# 13.95 index
Have a nice 66 nova x stocker.
12 bolt slapper bars calvert shocks drum brakes no roll bar
Have 283 parts 2 barrel manifolds couple nova blocks complete 2 barrel nova core motor clutch trans. etc.
Living in Denver if we ever have a track here again probrably not good altitude deal!
I dont know why these slower class combos interest me.

Jim, they interest you and I because they're affordable to build and still have fun racing. You don't need a 150k COPO, Cobra Jet. or Drag Pak to have a nice stocker.

I talked to him at rock falls and he said 6.14 if I recall correctly. I am more fuzzy but I think it was a stock type housing. He had run it with a 409 at one time
