4 dr. K-Car with a Drag Pak V10 in GT/AA.

I was thinking 5.9, and make it a wagon...

That sounds about a scary as a blown alcohol motor in an Opel GT.

That would be Frank and Linda Mazi and their BB/A. The car was called God of Hellfire.

Pretty sure it ate the tree at Bowling Green one year.

It was a beautiful car, and really quick.

I was also looking at an L-79 327 4 speed, or a 70 LT-1 350 4 speed.

That one of my favorite cars of al time, I wondered always what happened to it

Chad,

I believe BB/A is a blown gas class at that time. In the past few years they have added BB/AA for the alky engines.
Those blown gas engines are a handfull to keep alive and make power.
