Can't recall much else but those 3 combos had some good running cars out there...

350 Chevys were pretty new and dominated the older combos right away. The real killer Chevy combo was the low compression 350/255......HP rating was low and they were fast.

A lot of people were hesitant to race one at first until they saw how fast the ones that did were.....

Boertman and Bobby Warren....and Bud Rowe had one.....

Rich,

The 1968 Nova SS350.

One tough S.O.B. in the {10.50 to 10.99 Wt/HP} Class.

This one was the dominant force at Dover Drag Strip in 1970 and 1971.
