Ssgt 350 255/294 ???
 

So after a 10 year hiatus I am putting my car back together. 10 years ago the 1969 350/ 255 was factored 290 hp in GT... Now I see its 294.. Not that it matters much, but I am surprised to see it got hit in this period... Its not exactly a modern combination, and has been thrashed to death 20 years ago... I know its a dinosaur combo, but its all the stuff I have right now, and I'm just going to work with what I have.... But the question is, who was going so fast with that combo to get the HP ???? Are there even any fast 350 255's out there anymore ???

Jeff Dona ran that combination in his 69 Camaro in SS/HA for a lot of years and ran very fast.

Jeff? That explains it. LOL

Kevin, I looked up 69 350 255 hp gt class in Nitro joe stats, for 2012 fastest run GT/CA Norm Hall -.987, 2005 Cavalier. Tom

Dona is another four letter word for fast.

That's the truth!

Well that explains it... Those boys are all fast, and have been for some time... I just figured they werent running that combo anymore.. Since I couldnt race the past 10 years, I dropped getting N.D. and quit keeping up with things on the internet... Better to just not have to see everyone else having fun when you cant!

Well its good to know it not a dinosaur combo yet....

Hey Dave, I grew up in North Arlington, NJ...... Did you get the HP in the firebird, or the cavalier??
