Must have been a 1/8 mile strip LOL With headers, 4.88's and slicks maybe- showroom stock on E70-15's, sorry, ain't happening That severely tweaked '68 in Car & Driver barely squeeked into the 12's, and it had the best factory-available off-road (NOT the Z-28 cam) cam & springs, the cross-ram, 4.10 gears, open tube headers, and fine-tuned by the factory to a gnat's behind, tended to by the factory rep.
