    back in the day mid 80s, my friend and I loved to steet race buicks.we tuned at a small drag strip. no one on the steet took us serious well untill they could not believe there eyes. I still have my 66 gs with a 455 in 12.40 on radial ta's pipes up at 113.50. my friend and I beat every thing on the street at that time and not just a jacked up 75 camaro.To answer your question he had a 75 skylark with a mild buick 350 his mothers car, along with his 65 455 gs. the 75 ran mid 13s 256 rear with mild cam timing. like I said sure miss though days.
