So far this whole car has been done on a budget so I really don't want to stray to far away from that.The best it has run so far 10:93 1/4 muncie,ind. Basic stock rebuild work over iron heads marine cam torker intake eddy carb car weighs in at 3245.Just picked up a rollercam and lifters today but its rpm range is 4400-7800 which would be lots of fun but i drive this car on the street to car shows and outside of town to take my frustrations out after work"poor car".Still would like to drive on street but want low tens.going to swapmeet in columbus how knows what might be there

Low 10s on motor or spary? Should be easy to achieve on motor with good heads. Really easy on spray.
