well, I hate to say it but I built that combo way back when stock rules meant stock. factory pistons ,presses pins ,stock lift, duration, and overlap stock valves,rods, I did use the cast crank,racing head service did the valve job but the valves were backcut when they showed up so I had to re cc the combution chambers. a RPM 7000 series cam dynamics cam with stock lifters ,valve springs were very low pressure 96lbs on seat 225 over the nose,stock trans was a t-400 no gear set then or aluminum was available then,and I used a Rossi 9" cortina convertor 4800 stall. @4705 racing wt. for Q/SA 14.35 index we went 14.17@84 mph 2 time out, the gear was wrong we started with a 5:57 but the engine needed more like a 586 or 614 it only finished @ 4600 but we shifted @6000 and it pulled good you have to mechanically overcome the over 2 tons of wt. The car was fun it would pull the wheels 3ft and once I raced jerry mcClanahans Q/SA which was running 13.80's at the time and thru first and 2nd gears our wagon went off and hid from jerrys car but plug high gear and he would drive around me. It was early in my racin career so I was pretty green and still learning but my partner didnt want to keep racing so the project was cut short of its full potential.I pulled the engine & trans and sold the car to tony Janes with posi and 557's still in it, It was a 1969 brookwood 6 passenger body. .....memories???..JUST MY2 CENTS
