Thanks Terry even that hint helps. Only 2 cars really fit, assuming there was no factoring yet:
60 Cat 9P wagon, 4360/363hp=12.01
or
60 Ventura HT, 3966/333hp=11.90 right on E/SA
So I guessed the Ventura, with prepped engine & trans, down at shipping weight, 1st try in the Gonkulator said
13.91 at 98.72
Closer than usual for a 1st guess!
I just cut down the traction G's a bit, that's all it took for
2.27
9.21 at 78.4
14.21 at 98.58
One of the fun things about re-visiting the vintage NHRA stuff with the Gonkulator is I can see about what 60ft time they must have run to jive with the rest of the combo and et/mph. 2.27 seems slow, but my daily driver cars Gonkulate to more than a 2.40 short time back in the 1970s based on the few vague scribbled timeslips I got back then. Sometimes only the ET was scribbled on the timeslip, not even the MPH! Tires were awful back then.
