1970 Chevrolet Chevelle Malibu 350


2006
First some photos of the car. It's a Chevrolet Chevelle with a '76 350 engine (L48?). Red with black interior.

It's got a TH350 transmission and a 12 bolt rear which had a 2.73 when I got the car. Have done a few rolling road shoot-outs:

First graph is from right after I got it, second is from after I installed an HEI distributor.


2007

Replaced the headers over the winter and had some trouble starting it up again: Starting Big Red

These are the first two runs I did in it and associated timeslips:
First run and timeslip.
Second run and timeslip.

The diff turned out to be dangerously broken, infact, one of the planet gears had gone walkabout and was no-where to be seen! Got a new Auburn 3.42 installed.

2008

Photos from Santa Pod's Saturday Night Special in February 2008. Had done a couple of runs at the Mopar Nationals the previous summer but had fuel and traction issues so not even worth putting up timeslips. These are from February 2008

Early 2008 I installed the original column shift.

Before my first runs that year I invested in some drag radials, BFG 275/50/R15. Here are my Timeslips from October 2008.

Late 2008 I installed a gauge cluster and fitted an Innovative A/F guage.
