Dear Phil;

Exactly. :rolleyes:

It's "nuts" to think a 3,000# vehicle will run in the "12s" with less than 300 CID and be driven 99% on the street.

There might be some exotic import that could, but not with a 60s truck engine for power etc. To quote one of my Engineer friends; "America's 'Hot Rods' are just a lot of noise & brute force".

I like noise & 'bute force' but there are limits, even to that.

Thanks for bringing this up. ;\)
