I do race it in street with the 250 and a weber 38/38 on it. If it was a Nova I could claim anything from 68 to 72 but with the wrong grill and fenders not much you can do with it.

If you REALLY wanted to run Stock with THAT car, there's nothing wrong with the 250 or the 307. I've got a bit of experience with both. They won't win Class at Indy but they'll go comfortably under the index. The 350 needs help.

Thanks for the reply Billy.I like the 250 and I know you are the expert on them. It seems to me that most run the 230, I figured the 1bbl would be even more strained with the larger cubes.
