79 should run 12's easy enough, went 13.3@108 with stock 200k Mike 60e and truck converter, ls9 cam in 3500 d/a. Now it's built trans, 3200 stall and fti cam..

408 it's a 60e I built at home, upgraded pretty much everything I could except the sonnax drum that adds clutches, can't remember the name of that one.

It's no 9 second car, but I've got one of those as well ��
