Doug,

Great Run and Yes it 's super fast car, there are several but his is the fastest ... Plus he runs Fast everywhere he goes....

Tom,

I think the 360 ci mopar's have been thrashed alot more, plus that was a very popular combo... Now you have the 340 & 318 combo's...

Your right. Sorry, I'm old.

Tom Young, if you want to race your 360 at 250hp, put your motor in a dodge pickup.Tom

My only point was 10 years or so ago that Olds 350 was rated at 275hp. Someone was smart enough to get it dropped, or NHRA was dumb enough to drop 25hp off that combination. That's alot at one time!
All of the GM 350's of that vintage are higher than that by far. My only point was it doesn't take as much effort to go that fast when the HP is to the low side. These guys are taking advantage of a good thing.
Like I said, I have nothing against the owners, I'm sure they are all great guys and work hard., but those are the facts.
Sam Murray has the same motor (bigger cam) and his is 275hp, and at one time was 280hp. Now his car is REAL fast with an honest HP figure.

Hey, even old Mopar racers (former) can have an opinion, right Artie!

Tom Young, I'll help you out the 72 Buick 350 has a hp rating of 270. Remember this is the same motor in the Skylark that grandma drove to bingo every Sat. night. All that being said, Excellent performance all Weekend Doug ! You and Johnny Fisher Heads-up now thats a Race I'd like to see? JOHNK3954

X2! Both guys work hard on their combo. It would be a sell out to see that!
