I have built several grudge racer cars that "look" stock down to the exhaust that run low 9's to mid 8's
That extra 50hp you were spraying more than made up for the difference in that MAF I'm sure lol..

Seriously though, I still get a kick thinking about how both cars were on the cutting edge back then. By today's standards they had street motor's put into racecar chassis. **** Powell's car had 10:1 comp and had that stock accordion intake crap on it FOREVER!.

9.85 @ 119 standing on the brakes at the 1000 ft. mark. Decided to give up racing and disassemble the car before ever getting it dialed in. It was a mid 9 second car with no doubt.
