Default Dime rocket hemi?

What is the slowest combo you can think of where you can run a gen-1 hemi? Probably a high-line four-door or wagon with weight added to go one above the natural class. I spent a few minutes on Class Racer Info and found a 1967 Plymouth Belvedere II station wagon 3-seat @ 9.76lb/in that can go into E/S-E/SA (10.00lb/in).



I stopped there. Perhaps there are combos that fit F/S-F/SA or even lower?

Don't think a Gen l came in a 67. Gen ll. Tough to do a gen ll as a dime rocket.

Dime Rocket Hemi? There are some words that don't belong in the
same sentence. i.e. Jumbo Shrimp, My friend the lawyer, run slowly,
etc.

Depends on your interpretation of a dime. If a dime is a $million, it can be done but you still need to budget for a toter, trailer, golf cart and some spare junk. Go for it!!!

My bad. I'm referring to the 426 Hemis.

How about a "Dollar Rocket" then?
