AFCO's are NOT bolt-in

The GMPP Fasburn would be a significant upgrade for your combo. Had a buddy running a set on a 10:1 355 in a 3300 lb '67 Camaro, 3-speed, 4.56's, 10" tires and it was running 11.50's @ 116 with untouched Fastburns.

Jason-
No doubt. I had a lot of fun up there in a short period of time this fall.

I've even been accused of running juice on the combo as a result of the times I was running. LOL
