Coming back from POCI, I had a long stretch of straight road in front of me and I thought I'd get a little silly. I had the windows down, so it's not the most aerodynamic car, but it was still pulling.
Cool shot! Had a 74 Caprice 454 that would pull like a freight train. Surprised a lot of people that couldn't believe that they couldn't pull away from me on the 401. What rear gear ratio are you running?
Awsome, and with windows down no less! I can quickly get to 110 with my new SB, but it really does start to need quite a bit more to push into 120 and beyond. Takes torque with the big car like yours.
I once had a 69 GMC pickup with a 454 TH400 that could bury the speedo 1/2 way up the 403 cut, and continue to pull all the way to the top turn.

Good stuff!
