It's @ 370 all '62 models . You can thank Denny Ford

-39 h.p. from NHRA is a fair amount of help, I'd say.
Still too heavy for G/Stock.
Ray and Dennis built that car when there wasn't many good tires around, no 3 to 1 first gears, etc. , plus the record was in the 13's. Also , there wasn't a Camaro in every possible class.
You'd break that think in half trying to be competitive in G/Stock , in today's world.
