GA What would my car run in the 1/4?
If there is another thread about this, i didnt see it.Im wondering what you guys think.Its a stock port 12a with a R/B Holley carb and intake.Header, not sure what make, it looks custom, 2 1/2 " exhaust straight back with no cats, to a fart can, and MSD coils.What do you think?

"From Feb. 1984 Motor Trend article on GSL-SE:

0 - 60 accel: 7.96 sec.
1/4 mile accel: 16.06 sec @ 85.1 mph
60 - 0 braking: 135 ft"

that's depressing

I'd say mid 15-16s on a decent track. Unless you hook up sweet as you could do a mid/low 15. My old standard sev couldn't seem to break that 15.99sec barrier haha!

Comparing to my numbers, I had stock port/flywheel and RB dual exhaust along with a Sterling Nikki carb. My trap speed was 86.xx

My numbers will soon be updated as I have more done now to my lil 12A.
