I drive, every once in a while, a 69 Camaro 255/350 4 speed, G/S and F/S. It's been as fast as .65 under. The owner also has a 69 Camaro 425/427 automatic A/SA and AA/SA. It's been as fast as 1.01 under in good air. I can assure you they're legal. I hope I'll get a chance to pick both cars up some this year.
You can run 1.0 under legally
if you pick a good combination
and you
work on it. I've seen people spend a lot of money trying to
buy fast, and they were still slow.
Most of the stuff I've come across that was cheated up was slow, not fast. Most people who cheat, cheat because they're not smart enough to go fast legally. It usually means they aren't smart enough to cheat and go fast. Yes, there are exceptions. But it has been a general rule for the 30 some years I've been racing the cheated up cars are slow.
I've never liked crate motors, from the time they came out, and wrecked the local circle track scene. I do not like them any more now than I did then.
