This is the latest restoration last year, as I had raced it as a pro gas car for years I decided to restore it to a street legal ground pounder.
Engine is now a bored and stroked 454 turned into a 528 CI
To many bells and whistles to list.
At the end of the day speed is just a question of money.....
How fast do you want to go.

While I'm not a big fan of high-rise intakes sticking out through the hood with massive air cleaners... that car is fucking sick. Other than putting a huge 7-8" hood on it there's really not much you can do though haha. Good stuff there.
Judging by the stock appearing rear wheel wells I'd say it's still on a small tire, 28x12.50x15 or so?
What does the car 60'? I love small tire cars
I am in the process of researching how to make mine hook on a true street style drag radial and stock-style suspension. I'll probably go the easy way though and put a 275/50/15 M/T ET street on it though.
Car looks like a lot of fun, and I love Chevelles.
Any times with that combination in the car? From the car it looks to be certed to at least 9.50s if not faster but I don't see a chute mount unless it's lower ... can't tell from the pics
