Just remember that rear-end gearing has a significant effect on quarter-mile times. If you take two identical cars, one with a (typical) 3.36 rear gear, and the other with 4.11 gearing, the 4.11 equipped car will usually beat the 3.36 car to the finish line.

What hurt us the most back then was tire tech.back in the seventies i threw on some slicks for the street ..helped 100 percent..12 second cars all became ten second cars .

My stock 4200 pound '96 Impala SS (LT1 5.7 liter) ran a consistent 15.3 at Pomona Drag Strip. Then I replaced the stock mufflers with 2 chamber Flowmasters, added an "H" pipe, and upgraded the air box for better breathing. That got the ET down to 14.7. I still have the Impala - I bought it new. It's a garage queen now.

68 Hemi Dart

My buddy had a 1971 Dodge Dart Swinger with a 340 in it. SUPER fast. R.I.P. Manny

What 4 speed automatic fid that old 440 Cuda use? 727 Torque flights were only 3 speeds to the best of my knowledge.
-
And I remember when all of these were new. Thanks for the memories. Worked at a Chrysler Plymouth dealership when I was young and the Road Runner and GTX listed for around $3500 new.

Hurst made shifters, not transmissions Also, you've missed so many cars! 1968 Mustang Cobra Jet, 1969 Mustang 428 Super Cobra Jet, 1968 AMX 390 Go Package, 1968 Camaro 396 and many others all ran in the low 13s.

No Buicks? 1970 Buick GS/GSXStage1 was the “Hemi Killer” back in the day! Should’ve been on the List!!!!

Great video! Love these. Maybe along with horse power & tork pounds next time you could remind us of the (then) "sticker price". That would be the cherry on the sundae...
