1969 Camaro SS396 L78 vs 1964 Studebaker R3 Supercharged- Pure Stock Muscle Car Drag Race

Описание: 1969 Chevrolet Camaro SS 396 375hp L78 vs 1964 Studebaker Challenger R3 Supercharged (Pure Stock Muscle Car Drag Race)
Featured are two rare cars. The first, a 1969 Chevrolet Camaro SS396. But it's just not any SS396, it's an L78. That means 375 ground shaking horsepower. What an absolutely gorgeous car. And the underdog, it's the Plain Brown Wrapper.. a 1964 Studebaker Challenger. But again, this isn't any Challenger. It's packing a hot R3 engine with a Paxton supercharger. Sure, it's only 304.5 cubes, but it's making some boost and putting out 335 horsepower in a lightweight, stripped down car. The results might surprise you!

The Pure Stock Musclecar Drags take place every September in Michigan. The most important rule: your muscle car must be stock. Other rules include that the cars must be built between 1955 -1975 in either United States or Canadian assembly plants with a minimum warranty of 12 months and 12,000 miles, and cars must be factory equipped with the minimum of four barrel carb ration, dual exhaust, and other factory installed equipment that promotes high-performance intent and image (AKA a musclecar).

The engine must be factory correct for the year, model, and horsepower claimed.

The transmission must be correct for the year, make, model, and horsepower claimed. Shift improver kits are allowed.

The rear axle must be of the same manufacturer as the car. Any gear ratio is allowed. Lightweight driveshafts NOT allowed.

The carburetor must be correct for the year, make, and horsepower claimed. Jetting and metering changes are permitted. The choke assembly must be in place and functional.

Cast-iron exhaust manifolds are mandatory and must be correct for the year, model, and horsepower claimed. Internal modifications to the exhaust manifolds are NOT allowed. Under no circumstances will headers be allowed, including those cars that came with headers delivered in the trunk. The exhaust system may be upgraded to a maximum of 2.5-inch head and tail pipes. Pipes must be routed as they were originally for the year, make, model, and engine combination. Mufflers must be stock looking in design, that is, oval in shape. No glasspacks or straight pipes allowed unless installed as original equipment.
