Here's a link to a stock '68 454 ls6 chevelle running mid 14's off the show room floor, OOOOHHHHHH. That maybe a little low, but you catch my drift.

Here's another with a little better times. I don't even see that car in the top 50!

And another!

Now if he’s done a bunch of work, ie h/c/i, nitrous and sticky tires, it could be close. Anything less, you will destroy.

BTW, do you have any times on your set-up?

Later,
Dave
there wasnt an ls6 in 68

Actually it looks like the ls6 454 BBC started production in MY1970.

Agreed, reading this thread is like opening up a file you think is going to be a hot naked chick only to find a big naked fat chick.

Did the race happen?

From a roll or high speed race that chevelle is creamed. From a dead stop 1/4 mile run I would like to know the out comes. Both cars are sick!!

They probably raced and the Chevelle won, sending the young'un into shame and hiding....can someone delete this thread so no one else wastes 30 minutes of their afternoon watching this family feud? That was comparable to getting really good oral, then right before you finish, the hooker just quits and runs away with your wallet.

Sounds like the old wise one is playin' w/ the kid. There's no way that a guy who owns those cars doesn't know exactly what he's up against. Are you kidding me? Come on; those old school muscle car guys have been around the block a few thousand times.

...I decided that I will have to run him NA even though I'd rather race him on the juice. We met at a secluded area not far from airport. I started feeling good about myself because I do have the "home field advantage" as I have raced here many times before and it was his first time. That moment of confidence quickly dissolved. As I got closer to the Chevelle, I noticed a completely different beast. He showed up in slicks, a wheelie bar and a lope that rattled my fillings. He got out of the car wearing a helmet. "What took you so long?" he said wearing a cheesy grin...

Ohh, how about a choose your own adventure thread???

Do you want to:

A. **** yourself till your uncle asks what your car is leaking out from the doorsill...

B. Thrown a temper tantrum saying that its not fair he's running slicks and refuse to run till he puts back those skinny bias ply tires...

c. Line up anyway and accept your fate...
