1965 BB/Stock,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,???

[Paul Ceasrine]

Pete,

1965 A/Stock = 8.70 to 9.49 Wt./Hp...........(Would have been changed to 8.30 to 8.89 Wt/Hp)

The A/Stock cars in 1965 were running;
A/S = 12.70's
A/SA = 12.95's

1965 B/Stock = 9.50 to 10.59 Wt./Hp. factor.....(Would have been changed to 9.50 to 10.09 Wt/Hp)

Also known as, the 'factory' general street-musclecar class

The B/Stock cars in 1965, were running;
B/S = 13.00's
B/SA = 13.30's

The 1965 proposal would have had the BB/Stock cars (1965 only cars) with a
8.90 to 9.49 Wt./Hp. factor,,,,

A 'dealer prepared' street musclecar, with a big-body car stock performance engine,,,,

Which would have put the;
1965 Buick GS,,,,,,,,,,,,,,, 425/380 HP,,,,,,(3430 lbs.),,,,,,,9.03 Wt/Hp
1965 Oldsmoblie 4-4-2,,,425/370 HP,,,,,(3395 lbs.),,,,,,,,9.25 Wt/Hp
1965 Pontiac GTO,,,,,,,,,,421/376 HP,,,,,,(3467 lbs.),,,,,,,9.25 Wt/Hp

All within a great competitive class,,,,with cubic inches, horsepower and weight pretty much equal....

1965 Elapsed Times,,,,,,,, probably in the 12.85 range,,,,

Here's a 65 Olds 442 two door hardtop, it's not a bad looking car.

There is something nice about that look!!!!

To bad Chrysler didn't have any Street Hemi's in '65...they just had Race Hemi's.

Or how about a big-block 65 Chevy Nova perhaps.

1965,,,,,,,BB/S

The class was for 'intermediate cars only',,,

So the 65' Malibu SS 396/375 HP could qualify for BB/S.

Car Weight; #3350 lbs.
Wt/Hp = 8.93
Class; BB/S

Chevelle Malibu SS396,,,,(w/Z-16 Option and 396/375 HP L-37 Engine Code).

With only 201 built (production numbers), back in 1965 I don't think they could run in
A/Stock.

Mopar for 1965 in BB/S,,,,,,,,,,

The 426/385 HP "Nascar Race Wedge' from 1964 would have worked,,,

Single-carbed, with the 'special' Holley 835 CFM carburetor..
