We must also remember that the carb is a tiny little AFB about the size of your fist...

Can we correctly assume this car is the quickest and fastest 273 ever....in ANY configuration?

Was this car in stock at Indy a year or so ago?

Brett, I would think you could safely say that! This car is unbelievable! Most 340 cars at the same weight couldn't touch this car. You should do an article on this one!

BTW How the hell are you? I haven't seen you in years! Jim

The car is a well done piece! And trust me, Matt leaves at more the 8000, more like 9000+ rpm!

Is Matt any relation to Ron Steen? Ron raced a '66 Belvedere I ASA out of Minot ND in '66 and '67.He then drove a SSBA '68 Hemi Cuda with Steve Solveit in the late 60s.

Thanks
Dennis
