Thanks Robert, done!!

Got specs on your 351C? Great engine. Mine was a '70, closed chamber heads, solid lift cam by Cam Research, MPG Head Service port plates, 4.56 gears, etc, it would pull to 8000 RPM's!!!
Car had no traction, though Should have been in the high 11's!!

11.1 @ 126 so far......

Closed chamber heads Solid lifters
Ahh, I had a '69 Mach 1 (first car) 351 'M' code (aka Hi-Po Windsor or 351 CJ), factory solids, 11:1 compression, shaved heads (jacked it up to 12:1) ported polished heads, etc. That car kicked a** I tell you. I had 308s in it and I could still lay rubber endlessly. Got to love that torque!!!
456 rear???? I would imagine NO traction at all!

'69 Mach w/built 351? Oh yeah baby!!

[rpretzel]

12.59 @ 117 mph.

But I had many things working against me...
1. 6,000 feet elevation
2. Stock rubber
3. I was driving

With new rubber and someone who can actually drive, I should be able to knock at least 1 second off that time.

I race, but sorry I don't race a Shelby or a Mustang. I race a 92 Camaro , thats is sponsored by HOOTERS . I run in the N.H.R.A. division 1 Top Sportsman class. The car runs 7.40s @187. I have been brought up around Fords, the reason I purchased this car is because I was comfortable when I sat in it. My father raced a 1968 G.T.500 K.R. back in the late 60s-early 70s, and that car is still in his possesion, and unrestored with 22000 race miles on it. My next purchase is going to be a 2008 Shelby GT.(sorry can't afford the K.R.) Looking to purchase the car in Feb. have some bills to pay off first. Glad I found this site learning more, and more everyday.

Not wanting secrets - just curious. That is an awesome run. What kind of mods have you done? Have you changed exhaust, S/C, chip, pulley, CAI? I might get on the track one day.

Computer didn't show the picture first time around. Thought those were your Shelby's times.
