Quickest traditional Muscle Cars in Stock

[Jim Caughlin]

Wow, did this run off the rails, I think it is safe to assume what this guy was asking is what were the fastest 60's / 70's era cars that ran in Stock. Instead, it turned into some sort of argument about what exactly is classified as a muscle car, I don't think that was the point of the question.

I don't know, Jim
I think the only thing that is safe to assume it the o/p would like to hear about more FE powered Mustangs.
So, now that we've learned that a musclecar can be anything you want it to be, including full size and convertibles, I'll go with the Shelby style Mustangs of Bill hawk, Jim Morgan, and Kenny Meile.

When did I mention FE Mustangs? There are none that qualify for my post hence the reason I mentioned Ponds cars and Steve Wann's. You sure look like a ***** with your replies to a simple question!

Simple answer :
Okay, so now we know for sure specifically what you were looking for, this thread would have been over in three or four posts .
At least I helped in getting it to 3-4 pages ;-)

Wasn’t there a video series of muscle cars racing each other and the 1970 LS 6 454 was the quickest?

Right? I feel like I walked into a coffee/barber shop. I thought I might read something interesting but nope.

I think that it's very interesting how different "Car Guys" view what a "traditional" Muscle Car is.
Ya know, I used to race a 1985 Pontiac Sunbird Turbo. It was fun and pretty fast. In the 1985 model year, the Turbo Sunbird WAS the fastest Pontiac body style period. I don't know if it's a Muscle Car though.

More like Joe's Bar and Grille to me...Wait ..it's Grill, isn't it?

Barber shop not necessary for many of us that lived thru the “muscle car” era

Sorry if my post went a bit off the rails, I was just reminiscing and got off the main question

The big cars are rarely raced in the modern era of Stock but they certainly were at one time.

Back in early 70s, we were at the Saturday night street races with a 70 350 LT1 Camaro and a 67 396 375 chevelle, a guy showed up with a white 1963 Ford Galaxy with a 406 3 duece Thunderbolt and schooled us on what a muscle car was.
