my 63 sport fury golden commando with a hot 383 single 850 cfm carb ran 11.73 in the quarter , 4.89 rear gears 727 with a trick 5k converter , and a 8k redline cam . stock block , rods and crankshaft . it had mw heads with a customized single plain intake of the day , back in 73 . it went record in ihra event . we have been running it with a soft c/r 440 for pump gas with mw heads and intake , as a street / strip car running 11.80 off the trailer with bfg drag radials through the muffers with 4.56 in the butt . oh ya 6 blade steel fan mounted to the waterpump , brass radiator , miny alt and reduction pulleys . just like a street car , lol .

can't quite see my 8 3/4 bracing , but it was done from center of both springs across . the shocks are vertical mounted to the side frame rails . and had tobe moved more to the rear because the brace bent both shocks on a hard lunch , lol . live n learn .

Oil and filter, fresh belts, fresh Hoosiers, tach mounted and hooked up, fuel cell vented. Can't live with this throttle linkage though. Still a few tracks open through Oct. for test n tune. So close...
Nicely done. Love those early B's!

Nice looking set up, looks like a runner too...
find someplace remote to let it eat,
make a few launches & maybe some 1/2 passes
always some 'way out place' you can do a few short blasts
make sure take someone to video you
so you can show US too
anyway good luck

this car ran 10.73 in 1973 with a wild 8k 383 850 cfm combo , it's been around for a long time as a racer/street machine
Grate looking Car. The pain we go through. But it is all worth it in the end. Have fun.

I have done that since we live out in the country, didn't take a video. Engine feels strong but need a track where I can get some feedback...60 ft. and at least an 1/8 mile ET and speed.Nice looking set up, looks like a runner too...
