Ok, here's an email I got from his friend explaining the car.
"1st and foremost, his car is GUTTED. From there, its a 302 with lightly ported E7 heads, he removed the thermactor bumps, he *may* have matched the upper to lower and lower to heads, but I'm not sure. Its a speed density car. 1-1/2" lontubes, 2-1/2" h-pipe, ran open. 3.70 gears, almost every accesory has been removed, smog, ac, power steering, its not much of a street car anymore, but that was/is his goal, just to race it and not drive it. The timing is bumped and thats about it. He did a stock rebuild on the motor, just dingleberry honed the cylinders. Not much there for suspension, he runs 26x8.5 slicks. Launching @ 5000 rpms, last week he got 1.64-60'. He also has a HAL, tubular K-member. I think he may have added 4 cylinder springs, but no shocks or struts or control arms."
