It sounds like it is possible to get it to run the index,just not cheaply.

A lot of things have changed since 1971.Lightweight wheels and radials for one.

Does this car have them?
To answer your question, yes the car does have some lightweight parts, HoleShot wheels, radials, trick powerglide and so on.

Raced the car in ihra as 195/200 worked good -.60 under good air
p/sa .404-.413 camshaft. 13.75 index

Also tried ihra 180/200 very good air 13.45 et 13.75 index p/sa .334-.334 camshaft.

Tried 180/200 high 90,s temp q/sa 13.93 et 14.10 index.

I should be able to install my spare super stock engine and run about .75 under in ss/pa If that answers your question about the car.
