[Shotimes] OT - GM 60's BB lust

[James White]

Hurst S/C Rambler!

390 cu.in. , 4speed T-10, 3.54 posi, traction bars, and best yet light!

My best time was 13.9 for the 1/4, but my buddy who offered and did replace
the clutch managed a 12.9 using his M/T drag slicks.  Put the tranny in 3rd,
rev it to 4k, and side-step the clutch petal.  Good for about 5-6 runs, but
all of them were winners.  And this was STOCK with the crappy Rochester
4-barrel.

regards, Jim White - greensho@crown.net
