Yes look's like it would Myron but you would have to have deep pockets or a wife driving the Camaro at a derby after she's found out you've just left with her best friend to the Bahamas.lol Claude

My kids for Fathers Day rented for me a Challenger which I really loved driving plus it looks great.(sorry for taking this in the wrong direction)lol CR

Ain't that the truth, they built boss 302's for many years and even stuck a 2bbl head/intake on the 200 and 250 6 cyl's! Oddball bosses too based on stroker 302 and 351 blocks. I forget the year but i remember seeing a mid 80's boss 302 falcon, I thought, "if only that was here".

My 2010 SRT-8 Challenger weighed 4540 w/me in it at RT 66 when I had it out there this year. Seeing that weight pop up made me really glad I bought it with a stick.

I was at the MCACN last weekend and in the "Barn Finds" section was one of the coolest cars ever. 1968 Ford Country Squire wagon with a 345 horse 428 and a stick. Supposedly a 1 of 1 car.

I had a `76 Pontiac Grand Safari Wagon I used as a tow vehicle and would bracket race occasionally. Always thought it would be fun as a Stocker,but the 455 Pontiac 200/310 would`ve weighed in at 5440 with driver in Q/SA. No thanks!

Someone ran one of these in division 3 in the late 70's or early 80's car was white and used a GM Quadrajet

We should probably take another look at some of these monsters too! Lots of big-block mid 70s combos out there carrying 1970 HP ratings just because they're big-blocks. I know Paul Wong has a couple of 440 Mopar favorites that he might share. Lots of these would still be trailer killers but at the right HP factor they could be index killers too.
A few e-mails to Pat C could fix a lot of these!
