We should probably take another look at some of these monsters too! Lots of big-block mid 70s combos out there carrying 1970 HP ratings just because they're big-blocks. I know Paul Wong has a couple of 440 Mopar favorites that he might share. Lots of these would still be trailer killers but at the right HP factor they could be index killers too.
A few e-mails to Pat C could fix a lot of these!

71 Chrysler T+C 3s wagon 383/300/295 makes P/SA at only 4890 lbs.
74 Ford Country Squire 460/195/300 can make Q at only 5270 lbs.
75 Pontiac Grand Ville 3s wagon 455/200/310 makes Q at 5440 lbs. 76Chrysler T+C 3s wagon 400/210/310 also makes Q at 5440 lbs.
75 Buick Estate wagon 3s 455/205/300 can make Q at a svelt 5270 lbs. BUT the same car can make R at 5570!
But the biggest groaner of them all has to be
76 Chevy Caprice Estate wagon 454/225/320 gets into Q at an insane 5610 lbs!
These kinda make Capt. Jacks 60 Chevy wagon 283/230/215 look pretty light in the a** in U/SA at only 4470!
Too bad I got back into drag racing and Stock so late. I had or had access to many of these in my demo derby days. Sad to think how many have been destroyed...

My 2010 SRT-8 Challenger weighed 4540 w/me in it at RT 66 when I had it out there this year. Seeing that weight pop up made me really glad I bought it with a stick.

I was at the MCACN last weekend and in the "Barn Finds" section was one of the coolest cars ever. 1968 Ford Country Squire wagon with a 345 horse 428 and a stick. Supposedly a 1 of 1 car.

I had a `76 Pontiac Grand Safari Wagon I used as a tow vehicle and would bracket race occasionally. Always thought it would be fun as a Stocker,but the 455 Pontiac 200/310 would`ve weighed in at 5440 with driver in Q/SA. No thanks!

1969 Caddy Brougham Limo (it's in the guide), 375hp 472, at 5795# with driver to run O.

My kids for Fathers Day rented for me a Challenger which I really loved driving plus it looks great.(sorry for taking this in the wrong direction)lol CR
Hey Dont bash the Aussies they Aussie Ford boys Falcon would make a great Torino and awesome 351 clevelands over there!!!now GM is another story!!!
