I run in SS/AH with my 68 Barracuda. When I started building the car the index was 9.90. then it moved to 9.80, then to 9.30. I hoped the car could run 9.30's when I started the build, this was in 2005. I have Barton heads that I bought used, dated 5/00, and a nice short block with Diamond pistons, etc. I enjoy going to Indy to support the class, but never built it to run with the big dogs. I can run 50-60 runs with the same springs and have run a few 8.90's, but mostly 9 teens and twentys. As long as you have shoe polish on the windows I can race with anyone, except for a heads up run, which I have had only one in 4 years. The point is you can race and have fun and not worry about all the go real fast stuff and worry about who has the lastest trick of the week. I do have another engine going together that I would like to be faster, but I do not worry about being the fastest. Now, if someone has to much $$$ and would like a place to spend it, please let me know. See everyone this spring. Dyno "Gold Coast Hemi"
