Wow really?? Motor was dyno'd ,I guess hook up is the game?
Man I forgot to mention, nostaglia racing,no roll cage,cannot go past 7.5
What converter is he running?

I was thinking closer to 10.5 - up, but lot going to depend on how good a driver he is.
honcho are we talking about 1/8 mile or 1/4 mile e.t.???

1/8 and this is his first time draggin ,will find out on the converter
I'm guessing 3800 - 3900 lbs with driver. With that converter it won't go that fast. If a real 585 hp (dynos many times are somewhat inflated) 7.30's - 7.40's in the eighth. In race trim with a good converter and slicks 7.0's.
At 3450 lb in race trim at 535 hp I went 10.80's.
Nice ride hope it Runs the number you expect. Keep us posted.
Great looking `68 & a very nice garage !
