Hey, my first car was a 69 Ranchero with a factory installed 428 SCJ, and functioning ram air. This was the baddest ride around in those days. Dad tweeked it a little and I took it to Irwindale Raceway at one of their Fox Hunt nights ( all ladies got in free) and ran it during the "run what you brung". We had two man hole covers in the back, and GoodYear Blu Streaks. With a 3:89 LS rear, C6, and factory exhaust (and 90 lb int.), that thing ran an 11.88 at 124 mph!! Still got the slip, somwewhere.
That FE ruled!!

Thanks Pop.
