ok guys, I will have the car at the track in a couple of weeks and was wondering what everyone thinks it might go. I'm hoping for 13's but I don't know. Here is my complete setup, let me know what you think.

67 coupe (est. 3000 lbs.)
9.8:1 289
Stealth intake
fully ported and polished head (including bowls)
.496 lift, 224 deg of duration at .050 110 centerline
600 cfm vac secondary Holley (will be replaced with a street avenger )
roller rockers
hooker comp ceramic headers
dumped flowmaster 40's w/ h pipe
mallory dist. with msd coil and wires
C4 with Edge 3000 stall converter
3.80 gears in an 8 inch with a Detroit Truetrac
Hoosier quick times and skinnies on torque thrust wheels.
underrider traction bars
sub frame connecters, monte carlo and export brace.

I'm hoping for 13's which I hope is attainable with this setup. let me have it guys.

I don't see why you won't, as long as you can drive

I have a similar setup with a more aggressive cam and more compression and I should be knocking on 12s door the next time out since I fixed my leak and get cal tracs.

I think 13's are attainable with your setup. If your heads are ported nicely then you should have no problem.

My old 302 combo on my '66 used many of the same or similar parts as you:
650 Demon
RPM intake
224/230 cam
roller rockers
Hooker Comps.
Flowmaster 40's w/ h-pipe
Edge 3000 stall
3.55 gears
Little BFG drag radials 215/60 14

Instead of ported and polished heads I had:
Twisted Wedge heads with about 1.5 point compression drop(8.3)

It ran consistent 13.2's. I had no traction bars, 620lb coils, stock leafs, and no traction bars.

Let us know what it runs.

given your location i'm guessing very low 14's or high 13's. i'm gonna say your best time will be about 13.80's or 13.90's
