Dennis is right. There are many more racers than the ones on this site. This has sometimes not been a friendly place for racers...

I'll post some pics soon.

The 68 Barracuda and the 83 D150

the 68B runs in the 15.7's at around 85 mph in the quarter.
I have MPFI on the original '68 slant motor, using the OE: pistons, rings,
rods ,bearings, valves. I did mill the head to get up to 8.5 compression
and install a new timing chain and 318 valve springs. It has a built 904 and
and 8.75 sure grip rear with 3:55 gears.

the 83 D150 went through a frame off restro, complete rebuild on everything
in that truck. Was not intended for drag racing but has been down the track.
Runs in the mid 18's. The motor has .030 over pistons, 2 bbl carb, dual Dutra's,
low rpm torque cam, OS valves. A833 OD tranny, 8.25 rear with 3.73 gears.
Comfy interior, AC,,,,The truck has 30,000 + miles on it since the rebuild.

I have real pics of my cars, but not digital pics. If someone has digital pics of my 66 Valiant and/or my 66 Barracuda, and could post them, I would be grateful.

PS: I did tow my 66 Valiant to Clay City, Ky, from Florida, with my 84 D-100 slant six-A833OD.

Those are some serious race cars. I also absolutely love the front engine rail you guys have.
