Chevelle Stocker

doglover44 · 06-23-2009, 02:42 PM

Does anyone know who races a Chevelle in Stock ? I plan on Building a Stocker out of a Chevelle and it would help me alot to talk to some who races one.

Kevin Borgstrom is one guy you want to talk to!

The '66 Chevelle is on the track, small block version, but always curious how the '65 Chevelle with the 396 ci big block would do, especially with a stick in it. That would be an interesting ride...

I didn't think enough 65 Chevelles were made with a big block to be in stock, or do those rules still apply. I haven't raced in Stock for years. But your right Don it would be an interesting ride. My old 283 Chevelle wagon with a 4 speed was ten times more fun than my 8 sec dragster is to drive.

201 65 Chevelles were made with the 396/375, problem is they were hydraulic cammed motors rated the same as the solid motor

I saw a 396 65 Chevelle Stocker at Gainesville a couple of years ago. I guy with his son were changing the ring and pinion in the dark with their pick up truck lights shing on the back of the car. It was a Blue 65 in C stick .it wasn't terribly quick and had a ton of clutch in it. It was pretty cool and had a very very nice rollcage. I wish I could remember the guy's name. I don't think that it would be a real good combo. Cool, but difficult. I give them an A for Effort.

Here is the guy (from DRC)
2396 C/S Sonny Dunton, Ft. Myers FL, '65 Chevelle 11.628 11.65 -0.022

i also have a chevelle stocker, but am rather new to this game. i have been .7 under on an aborted pass as my quickest run. 67 chevelle H/CM (ihra) 12.00 index ran 11.30 @ 103, ready to try this weekend again if all this darn rain would pass!
