In 1964 I was at the drags with my 56 Chevy that had a little 283' motor and Corvette quads. I was challenged to a grudge race after the races were over by a guy that had a 56 Ford. He had installed a 406" big block with the 3-2 barrel set up (406 hp I think) and a 4 speed . I thought he would blow me off the track so I told him I would only race him if I could open up my headers. I thought I might have a chance since he had the stock cast iron exhaust manifolds. I beat him by 6 car lengths in the 1/4 mile and was still pulling away at the end.
