Default Re: Most Under-Performing Musclecar Ever Produced?

As a modern stocker, I'll bet the NHRA acceptable rods are something much better and much lighter than OEM. That alone has to wake that engine up. Same with modern piston and rings. And probably a better crank forging. I'm just assuming that's all in the tech bulletin as I didn't bother to look.
426 Hemis never used to run in the 9's in Stock either...
