Whats the fastest SB Chevy SS/GT engine

JCChildress · 08-10-2011, 05:08 PM

What would be the fastest small block Chevy that a man could build for Super Stock GT ? When I says fastest, I dont mean farthest under the index, I mean OVERALL elapsed time . I know Fogle is wicked fast but I dont know the combo. I was thinking it was a 350 with the Holley carb, but I'm sure someone will correct me. I'm just curious and daydreaming about different combos. Thanks for any help.

The 327 with small Holley carb of Byron Setters built by Gary Hettler is the fastest SBC in the west!

How fast is it ? I was thinking Fogle had run in the 8's or fairly close.

Well considering there is Fbody's with factory shortblocks running N/A in the 9's I would guess LS1. I believe some stockers run in the 9's as well.

Daran,
Is the fast LS-1 really an LS-6 that comes with the factory CNC heads?

70 350 /350 with

Quadrajet, domed pistons, big valves, rated at 375 stick shift only. Seems overrated to me........Thanx Trevor

Unsure Adger, I bought my wife a 2000 Z28 auto, 2.73 LSD bone stock @ Atco ran 13.10. I installed a Yank 4400 converter and it ran 12.30's stock with ET Streets. A couple years later I bought her a 2004 Zo6 6 Speed 405 hp LS6 - The camaro was faster!!!

I am talking about engines with carbs, not fuel injection. I'm sorry,I should have mentioned that. I'm real curious about the 350 with the Holley carb

Your question is still too vague.

You're not even telling anyone what body you want to use, in what GT class.

How about a Pontiac Sunfire with a 1970 Chevy Camaro 350/360 rated at 325HP?

I said FASTEST E.T. , so it would probably be GT/A . In a 67 Chevy II, post car, with a stick.
