stock chevelle SS?   Posted Mon Oct 21, 02   9:40 PM     

ok just need some help calling bullshit on this guy at work. He says he use to have a stock 69 chevelle SS with a 396 in it. He said STOCK he was running mid to low 13s? is he full of shit? that's a big ass car and yeah, it's a big block but come on now? I'll give him mid to high 14's but come on man. I've seen a blown chevelle that sounded like a damn monster coming off the line like a batt outta hell and that dude was running 13.2's I don't see it but he swears up and down that he did....what do you guys think. now remember he said STOCK!

also he may have had a stock motor but i highly doubt he had stock tires may have been running a good set of slicks if he can get all 375 (factory rated) hp to the ground it's actually probably around 400 425 hp if he can get it to hook up i can se eit happening

low 14's sounds more realistic to me.

not stock. bull fucking shit. stock had polyglass tires that gutted the ability of that car to run a 1/4 mile. second off, those cars were 'orderable' from the factory. you could tell them you wanted 4.11 gears and a 4 speed with an aluminum intake, etc, etc... but even with all those goodies on board, the tires would defeat the abilities. with slicks, hell yeah. not with glass on the shoes though.

With slicks, and a good driver, it sounds very possible to me......

the super all drags have cars running low 13s with no problem. i know a couple guys that run in those events and with the exception of slicks that have to be stock sized the cars motors and all are totally stock.

i read a magazine article about that class atleast i think it was that class youre allowed to go up one tire size and those engines are not stock youre allowed to do anytihng that can't be noticed so strokers and mild cams are all over that racing series as long as the exhaust sounds stock and it looks stock

hey that's a nice lookin chevelle! the main issue with a bone stock 396 was the polyglass tires. death to holeshot.
