I wunner if he means by 2 barrel, he really is refering to a dual quad manifold set up ?
But that still beggars the question of how do you get 1000 odd Hp out of a 326 motor. Maybe by 326 he means 426 hemi, be kind of interesting to see how he explains it as an AMC though."aerodynamics are for people who cant build engines"

Wow, guys. I have a room of about 6 people that have helped build that car, and they are all laughing at you... But I guess that was the point of bulding the whole car, because nobody would believe it. But it just goes to show how little people like you know. So if you guys are ever in Panama City, FL. Come to Powerhouse drag track, and when you hear the Announcer say. "Here comes the Nash Trash, a 1970 Gremlin, 326 with a believe it or not, 2 barrell." And it runs a 4.90 with no nitrous or supercharger, be sure and come talk to us, maybe I can help show you guys what a real engine is.

I've stayed out of this pretty much 'til now, but anytime I try to figure anything out, the math doesn't lie.
It takes 1.6 cfm to make one horsepower, so it would take 1,600 cfm to make 1,000 horsepower. These guys are saying 2-bbl and they could be fudging and using a waste-basket size 2-bbl throttle body that would flow 1,600 cfm, but the fact remains that a 326 cid motor would have to spin to 17,000 rpm's to ingest 1,600 cfm. Unless these guys are from some other planet and have access to materials that us lowly mortals do not, I'd have to say they're full of horsefeathers.
The most incredible AMC that I've personally witnessed is a full-steel AMX with no light parts whatsoever, full interior and licensed for the street, no nitrous, no blower, single 4-bbl 390 motor that runs on a 9.90 index in Super Gas at Firebird. Now that's pretty impressive!!!!!Last edited by techinspector1; 05-22-2005 at 08:32 PM.

Thanks, Tech. That is an impressive AMC. 9.90 is a long ways from the 7.74 that a 4.90 1/8 mile equates too, don't you think?
Hey Denny, can you build me a red one of them? Looks like it was running about 4.90!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Hey Mike, my Maverick Super Gas car used to pull the front like that once in awhile !!!!!! When it did I was usually wishing the dang thing was remote driven!!!!! That's looking at a whole lot of sky on the launch......Yesterday is history, tomorrow is a mystery, Live for Today!

I just called 3 different informarion operators for Panama City, Florida and not one could give me a phone listing for any Powerhouse drag track, Powerhouse Dragway, or anyyhing close.
I think you have been eating too many Powerhouse candy bars and may be having a severe adrenalin rush.
