OLD Modified Corvettes - Page 36

I believe I know where this is going, and I could spot an illegal spec head without a whole lot of trouble. Then if there was a discrepancy, Brodix could make the call. They have several years experience dealing with every conceivable mod that has tried to slip by in the 360 sprints. The benefit is you are policing one head. Not 47 classes with 67 different head combos. Big difference.

Just ran across the article on that Vette in the April 1975 issue of Chevy Power a couple of weeks ago.
Did you catch who the owner is? I forwarded this to Darwin Doll and he would like to see this car at the York reunion next year.

I loved that Epstein and Camic article. 10.60's at 126 with all that stuff done to a 302!
How much base do you think was in the clutch then?
Did Epstein need to have NFL quality thighs?

Look at what a modern 283 super stock engine does...
at 3300 pounds, 10.60s would be normal at 123 MPH (for a 283 stick car)
The little performance things sure have added up over the years!

I made a boo boo on my previous you tube upload, and had the video banned for using an NHRA, over the air clip. I redid it this morning for your audio pleasure!
