Re: Best Pontiac Powered Super Stockers
Here's a 2nd gen Bird that ran SS/AM. John Clegg drove it. It has "PONTIAC" on the scoop.
This model car was not available with a Chevy V8 engine. I'm not familiar with the SS/AM rules. So, is it required that the car run a Pontiac engine, with either Pontiac factory iron heads or alum heads that are NHRA approved for a Pontiac engine ? It shows up on DRC from 1998 thru 2006. Ran mid 8's. So, anybody here familiar with this particular car, that could give me engine details ? Thanks ! Last edited by oldskool; 06-23-2020 at 10:53 PM. |

Re: Best Pontiac Powered Super Stockers
At the recent Jegs SPORTSnationals Bill Rink was #2. Don Kennedy was #4. And Irvin Johns was #7. Chris Stephenson was listed as driving a '68 Bird, in SS. But, he was driving a Buick Apollo.

Re: Best Pontiac Powered Super Stockers
At the Topeka doubleheader, Bill Rink's '74 GTO was the #2 qualifier for both races. Scott Burton's Pontiac powered '91 Bird was #27 for the 1st race & #20 for the 2nd race. At the time I'm posting this, Scott has survived 2 rounds of elims, in the 2nd race.

Re: Best Pontiac Powered Super Stockers
Today @ Indy, the #1 car on the SS Q-list was Pontiac powered, & driven by Don Kennedy.
 I'm also told that the #5 Cobalt has Pontiac power. https://www.dragracecentral.com/DRCS...r2020#indextop |
