That has it falling in P/SA which has a 13.45 index and this ex Jim McDonald Nova hasnt even made a 13 second pass even with good parts in it. When he ran it it was a T/SA. I asked NHRA if the 195 is a misprint because its ludicrous to have this car factored to 195
Apparently it happened on 9/27/01
Does anyone know who it was that got the combo hit that hard ?

I believe that I've had my hands on this car at some point in time. The 73 307 is the absolute worst of all the 307s. It's the only one that has to use a 350 (993) head with big valves and big intake runners. Everything that a small carb, low RPM combo definitely doesn't need.
Best option? IMHO, run the 350 2V combo at 224 HP. It's not as good as the 69/70 2V deal but it uses the same head (993) and the 1.250v carb. I remember this car being a hatch? It would fit M/N/O.
