    1971 Torino Cobra 429 SCJ. Maybe a high 12 second car.

    1975 Ford 460 made 218 net horsepower at 4400 rpm and 365 ft lb of torque at 2660. Curb weight 3600?(guess)

    Simple math will put this to rest Mike
     
  3. "Stock except for the carb?" '75 Ranchero?

    Either you are full of shit... or your Daddy is full of shit... or you're BOTH are full of shit.

    A stock '75 Ranchero with a 460 and a carb swap couldn't run a 15 second quarter mile let alone a 9 second one.

    Get your head out of your ass.

    The sad thing is, the fastest car I've ever owned was a Cavalier that was sprayed to a 13.3 at 105 MPH. This weekend that will change as the '65 Nova will be swapped to a 350 horse 350. That should be good for 12's on drag radials.

    tube chassis anglia.... small roller big block... the car didn't get stupid fast until the day before i sold it....after i put on a new carb....then it was crazy.... really regret not doing the carb swap sooner....i would have had more fun with the car....the previous owner had went 10.30's @ 135-ish... with a flat top 580 solid lifter 461....it was a lot of fun to drive around on the street and expressway....too bad that summer was HOT....:rolleyes: saw the car after the new owner had finished it.....in the gg's gazette last fall.... orange pearl with a blown 427 looking nothing like it did........ :D brandon

    Nothing was done to it but a holley carb swap. The 9 sec at a 1/4 mile was done to weeks after the car was brought new in 75. After that night daddy never took it to the track again but raced it on a 1/4 mile bridge a few mile from the house. He blow the motor in it when I was seven years old and sold it. Good times. It's hard to belive the only car to ever beat him was a Chevy.

    from nowhere...

    My cubic dollars have traditionally been a little short, and, being born with a curse for the love of 4000 pound cars, I would say my '63 Galaxie 4 spd car...11.90 @ 110 mph...
    Hopefully I'll be able to squeeze 10.0's out of the truck before next year...

    We'll see what I can ring out of the coupe this year, but I refuse to ditch the tri-power to do so...:D
