    Hi everyone, I own a 1966 Hertz tribute, but with a 428scj. No replacement for displacement. 12.5 @ 118 on stret tires.

    Welcome - that must be a replica of the Hertz "Drag Car Club" model.

    Post some pix!

    With that trap speed, I would say if you could get some traction you may break into the 11's!

    Traction is a problem...only ran it a few times, 60ft were 2.0-2.5 depending on how much I could make myself lay off the throttle. 0-60 was a 4.85. Might try slicks one day, but don't really want to start breaking things. Really only ran the car to find out what it would do with the 428 in it. Car weighed 3450lbs.:thumbup:
