Re: How about some pics of High Performance haulers.

I’m setting up my c10 to be a daily driver and capable of pulling an open trailer. It ran a 16.25 in a headwind. I think it could dip into the 15s otherwise. It has a 350 vortec, headers, performer intake and 600 Edelbrock carb. Not impressed with the carb, but it get great mpg. 600 or 650 Holley would help. 350 trans, stock converter, and 3.07 gear.
My elCamino is street and strip. I drive it everywhere. 496, solid flat tappet cam, 781 oval port heads, performer intake, 950 hp carb on e85. 400 trans, 8” converter, 3.70 gears. 3,800 lbs. 1.44 60’, 6.72 1/8, 10.72 1/4.

That El Camino is pretty impressive. Cool Hot Rods for sure.

Thanks Regan! I sold my bracket car last year and needed something fun to do. The 496 was my backup bracket motor, so I plugged it in my elCamino. I’m gonna be doing some drag and drive events with it. I actually got signed up for Sick Summer in ‘24. Excited to give that a try!

Mine is getting there! Got a ~425hp 5.3, T56 and 3.90s in it, just picked up the whole TCI Engineering suspension setup. The goal for '24 is to have it be a cone killer
