I would be able to pick up .18-.20,ask Gary Russell if you dont believe me he has done it for a test,Freddy Burris and I Pitted together for years and he ran a glide at points meets and a 200 MaClay when he needed to go fast and his 200 was always 2 tenths faster.

I hope you don't get to use it,but I am sure that you eventually will be allowed to.I hope to be able to use the Edelbrock heads too.

(Same horsepower rating of course)

I have run this combo for years,wasnt that bad until all the Technology came around for the three speeds now it is a horrible combo,NHRA will not allow a three speed in a small block 67-68 camaro because chevy didnt put a three speed behind the small block until 69.You are allowed to run a 295 hp Motor in a 69 or 70 Camaro @ the same hp rating with a three speed.GOOD LUCK.

late 1968 chevelle 350ci/350turbo. i had one, with build sheet. canadian car, blue with black interior, factory floor shift, malibu, 2dr hardtop, 10 bolt posi, bucket seats, hub caps and a radio! if it doesn't exist then i guess i sold a million dollar car...again...bummer!

It appears as though Chevrolet did put some THM 350's in some test fleet 68 camaros, so says CRG. Whether NHRA will acknoledge this, I haven't a clue.
