Fastest Berlinetta??

Whats the fastest known Berlinetta running around out there? So far no one in SCFB, SDFB, or SC3gfb knows of one faster than my slow Berl which I admit high 14's is slow.

Well heres the current specs on the engine, Accel super coil, MSD 8.5mm wires, Mystery cam, LM1 former 2bbl long block bored 60 over complete with crappy smog truck heads with 1.71" intake valves, 180* stat, Hayden Adjustable fan switch, Single electric fan. Cross fire Fiberglass hood with open louvers to dump cool air to the Edlebrock Proflo air cleaner, tweaked Q-jet, Edlebrock '86+ 1 5/8" headers, 2.75" exhaust. Beefed up tranny but no shift kit yet with an alum drive shaft.

2.2 60' with an open 3.08 rear
14.7@93MPH 1/4 mi


Soon to have the L98 heads that are sitting in my garage, and a performer intake. No more cast iron 305 truck intake and no more
1.71" intake valves woohoo but I'm hopeing for high 13's this summer.

sorry guys i was just reading another post and i dont want to speak for someone else but there is someone floating around on this board by the name of crazyrob75 i believe and he has a 454 in his berlinetta.. I also have a friend down here in phoenix with some work to his transplanted 350 in his berlinetta. Ithink this crazyrob75 guy has all of you guys beat with the big block though.

lol i am still the fastest in oregon. 454, holy $hit thats a lotta engine. well we will race autocross too. i dont know, those big big blocks get on the edge of undriveable to me. i mean they get frickin 7 miles to the gallon if you keep your foot out of it, are a biotch to buy parts for cuz the parts are so much more expensive. i would rather have a built sb 400 anyday. just my opinion tho.

A big block stays streetable longer than a small block. What do I mean by this? Well simple , what is radical(wild,unstreetable) in a small block is mild(streetable) in a big block. A small block with 400+horsepower is hardly streetable, but with a big block 400plus is still mild. Mild is good for the street.
