That said, don't know, don't care who your customer is, "what is full weight" and "I think" is meaningless speculation, besides it appears no one in your area has ever seen your car run, no mind back up your claims...
Per Mark Guthrie, a guy that first met HP Hunter aka Mark Jones in 2007, knows him well, and "helped him in his shops for months", "Mark has talked about his "3600 lb. Chevelle" dozens of times. I have never seen him run any of his cars, ever and I am just saying none of the locals have seen it."
Meanwhile, Bob's Chevelle runs good, it should, it's nearly 300 lbs. lighter than my '68 and has nearly 40 more cubes and I've been advising him for over a decade.
Again, nice to see that after 5 years, some have caught up and some have surpassed my former Chevelle's performance as is the case with the car HP Hunter speaks of, even if it took 30+ more cubes, a light weight, low drag transmission in a car that weighs nearly 300 lbs. less and last but not least a -1600' DA to do it!
Just saying.
BTW, the compression ratio of this 496 is at least 10.8 not the 10.7 you stated.
Just keeping it real.

My chevelle that you refer too, weighs 3720, ran 10.10 @ 5320 feet DA with a 27.45 Baro with a 118 grains of water the first full pass down the track with a standard weight trans, just facts. Johns trans is the 3000.00 version that Coan sells,
his car weighs 3615-3630, just facts, the second time John took the redbull out in some + 2000 feet DA with some more tuning the same exact MPH was run, as in the negative 500 feet DA of the afternoon runs a few months ago. And finally, Bob West's chevelle weighs 3680. Just keepin it real, and the facts strait. Ive allways been a big fan of your chevelle, Im really not sure why you have the burning desire to compare my stuff to yours. I think when you look at 40 Coupe, Bob West, John Wilson, and my own chevelle, the performance speaks for its self. BTW, I dont need any more buisness.
