That's funny too, I don't hang out at all on the Ford boards, I did it once to find out how to get rid of my pesky POS '06 dually and Ford bought it back from me, thx.
There's a mention of a Gongulator from an American Sitcom from back in the '70's that I watched while back in the old country as a teenager, I'll never forgot that reference and I still use it today! Without research, who else remembers the show?

Hogan's Heros was a very funny show. Watched it many times. It was from the mid to late 1960's. We used to watch it at the guys house who got me and my buddy involved in Drag Racing ....
Sundays sometimes after a day of racing at Island Dragway..... His mother made us something to eat and we watched the show. I am sure you can find it on TV now as there are channels that play nothing but old shows... Schulz.....Klink....Hogan....and numerous others... Schulz had all the best lines with his heavy German Accent... "Hogan....Where is the streudel??? You promised!" " I see nothing!!!!"

That's the one, Hogan's Heroes, and I still remember the Gonkulator episode. So Ross on FordFE.com named my computer program the Gonkulator, WerbyFord got added, the rest is history mainly on that site but some others too, inliners, StevesNova, etc.
I just started Gonkulating all the early NHRA history, 1950s-1971. Hard to find comprehensive real et/mph so I am compiling a list from books, web, etc. Graphing them is very revealing. Rich just sent me a list of the 1970 record holders, only 3 1970 cars in there, I am guessing the car/engine since they just list the make: H/S GTO 400/350 112.55mph F/SA Cutlass W30 12.23et G/SA RoadRunner 383/335 12.40et |

I have Classification Guides for that era. Since that was before the days of factoring and weight adjustment, the body-engine combinations could be narrowed down, if you would be interested. The 1957 Chevrolet Q/S would be a 265-162hp, not a 283. Technically, the 283-185hp engine was for automatic transmission only, though that was blurred from the beginning.

Looking at the old class guide, the 1968-70 CobraJets were rated at 340 non-ram air, 360 ram air. The sheets have the NHRA oval logo at the bottom and the date 1970 beside the logo. The hp rating is not listed on the sheet, I had to calculate based on the shipping weight from current data.
The 1967-69 Camaros 396 375 were rated at 425. Interesting that they list a 1970 Camaro with an LS6 450hp. Any others you need info about?
