Been Lurking, now ready to ask.

The white wagon was a Pure Stocker, the indexes for which are a full second slower than the NHRA Stock indexes. If they entered a Pure Stocker in an NHRA race and ran under the index at all, they were doing quite well.

Among the differences: the Pure Stock cam must check for stock duration and overlap; the stock 80 lb. valve springs must be used; no filled blocks; as well as the OEM type belt-driven water pump, original large pulleys, and steel fan. All of this stuff severely limits the peak rpm and horsepower.

There was a white chevelle wagon at the Edgewater pts. meet (Aug. 2005) that ran 12.56 on the 12.95 index. David Magee from Morningview Ky. if that is the car in question, it was on Racing Juke for sale some time ago.
