A guy at the track the other day with his just rebuilt 306 with trickflow heads and a vic jr intake and a 750 dp carb ran an untuned 12.33 @ 111.?? mph and he did not even launch hard on that run. The second run he managed to pull the front wheels about a foot and a half of the ground on launch but missed 3rd gear. He did not get anymore good runs. My point is that with tfs heads on a 306 and a little tuning he should be able to run high 11's all motor. Not too bad!
Kind of makes me sick, I have spent a lot more money to go slower and I should be much faster than him.

I think I want to sell my car and start all over.
