Fast Vette
Billy from Speedway ran 10.77 @129mph on the motor and this is his junk motor. Not bad for a nearly stock car with a 6 speed.
Last night he raced a mustang and punished it then that same mustang ran a z06 with a 402 stroker and maggie and that mustang punished the z06.
All these guy's underestimate Bill's car they think he is on the spray however last year he ran 9.80 @ 143mph on the spray with the same motor ( car would have run faster but he got kicked off the track first pass for not having enough safety equipment.
Not bad for a 364ci full weight including DVD player and subs.

So his junk motor ran 9's on N20 and 10's NA? He had the safety gear to run 9's but not 10's. Mmmmkay.
What happened with the Maggie car? Heat soaked by the time it left the burn-out box?

Your making it out to be a "Full Weight" stock 346. Which in all actuality, its a stripped down built/forged 346 with a 2 stage 150/150 on it.

Its a built 346 w/CCW Drag Package, No A/C, No Sways, etc etc etc.
The starter of this this thread is the same one that was talking about it a month ago. He must be bored and trying to stirr up another 175 post thread like the last one.

Billy's Beast.
I would like to believe Billy's timeslips that he is on "motor only", but lets do a little math: he is easily 100 lbs heavier than my 422. Why did he "only" run two passes?????. He is on the spray and is damn quick. Way to go Bill....on the Nitrous.....lets see 10 timeslips at the track....I did 9 yesterday...personal best of 11.14 at 127 mph...."straight motor"...legit......Sorry, but I dont impress this easily.
By the way...my 127 was with cats, 3" kooks, with no further weight reduction on the car other than my drag pack. Car has a/c, both seats, sway bars, etc.....Billy is the fastest guy around....but for now only on
the "spray". What gear is in his car...stock,,,with ls1 or ls6 tranny....
I just dont buy it. If his car has a small cam...means he is picking up almost 200 hp with his ported heads????...give me a break.

Just went back to the track yesterday and did a 10.9 @ 130mph without one clean shift. . . 
(Guess I've found the limits of a Spec 3 clutch).
Guess someone with a smaller motor than me and w/o a power adder, is just
