Whoa! That is light and that is heavy $! Those 1971 B-bodies w/HEMI hovered around the 3900 lbs. mark in stock form. Remove the street stuff, etc. and I can see maybe 3400-3500 lbs. but 3000 lbs. is a freak!

NHRA never factored our combo It was always 440 hp. We quit because of the acid ported heads. It was use them or get outrun, or quit We chose to quit.

I don't blame you; I'd do the same. I didn't know acid porting went that far back.
