Fastest 3rd gen in here?

I want to know who is the fastest 3rd gen here. I've got a stock suspension, no wheelie bars, stock bodied, true 10" tire car. I have gone 9.33 @ 148 to date and just want some more ideas to go faster without having to backhalf it. Current race weight is 3320 with me in it and I am trying to cut some more out of it and get it into the 8's.

You're the fastest 3rd gen, the second fastest last run was a 11.12 with a 400 block.

You gotta be kiding me! What happened my fellow 3rd gener's? We need to keep our cars competitive with these LT1 and LS1 guys. LOL, I hope I didn't upset anyone.

Motor is a 421ci with 14.5 to 1 comp., 1050 Dominator with NOS X 2 stage plate, Dart Pro one heads fully CNC'ed and a Edelbrok super victor semi ported, T350 with 4100 stall and trans brake, Ford 9" with 4.11 and 35 spline axles with a spool, stock suspension with aftermarket BMR solid arms, Competition Eng. torque arm, Hal 12 ways, front end has a PA X member with their A arms and coil overs and I run a Tokico 5 way strut, just until Hal makes something better, and a manual rack. 10 point cage but that will be upgraded to a 12 point and I also have to add a parachute mount cause I plan on opening up the second stage and go 8's this season.

Oh, heads are still a 23 degree head, no angle milling or raised runner design.

Here is an old pic of the current 421 without the NOS kit and manual brake master cyclinder and headers.

LOL, I based my build from a friend of a friend that built a RS with a 406. I have had mine for over 11 years and I'll probably be buried in it. Mine was a 305 TPI, 700R4, 2.73 one legger, and I bought this one cause I could eat off the bottom of it.

Thats ok, you don't have to look while going going fast! I build mine before I had paint so don't feel bad just stick with it. I never thought I would ever break into the 10's let alone low 9's.

Well the first motor that got me into the 9's was a 406, I had a $1100 rotating assembly, and some Dart iron eagles that were just touched by hand with a big shot set to 200 and it went 9.90's a few times that on a cold day she let a rod go at the stripe at 138 mph. I had about $4500.00 in that whole motor and I had the lower end put together by a shop. Before

After the BOOM

The new combo is a whole new mill, I have about $8500.00 in the whole motor carb to pan. I put some really god parts in this one, I have Oliver billet rods with ARP 3.5 bolts, Howards extreme crank, Ross custom NOS pistons, stock block with billet caps in all 5 positions and the block is filled to the water pump with concrete. Basicly the motor is good for about 1200hp on NOS, the pistons are the week link and thats fine with me.
