That thing is a beast, 211MPH is hauling ***, to do it NA is pretty killer. Looking at the back bumper it's a 90 or older C4.

All these kids with their fancy Motecs, Pro EFI, AEM **** boxes, BS3s...all junk, using unproven technology such as "electricity" and "computer chips." What do you think was running the fork lifts carrying napalm so that our B52s could keep dropping heat on ol' charlie hiding in the jungle back in NAM were using? Carburetor. What did Dale "The Intimidator" Earnhardt use on his engine to dominate NASCAR? Carburetor. What was on the bus that Rosa Parks was kicked off of? Carburetor. So Carburetor in sum wins wars, wins races and won the civil rights movement and if you don't like that then your a racist who hates NASCAR and probably voted for Obama.

The owner of the car wanted to hit the deuce with a naturally aspirated small block. He used Dennis Faerman from Houston to build the engine. This may be the fastest NA small block to run the Mile in recent years. Big Red Camaro ran faster, but it was running a very large big block (572-632 cubes, can't remember).
