I did buy bigger adjustable stahl headers and picked up a couple. George Supinski and then others ran it at 13.60s in florida at the Gators.... Try for his details from 1970 or 71. Val Hedworth was fast with a wagon also.

Thanks Dick, the hydramatic vs powerglide cars are quite a story.
I found this pic of Dianna's Delivery vs Garey in 1968 in case you had missed it:
