Since more than a few of us use the SBC this might be an interesting thread. There have been quite a few articles about the event with more to come no doubt. Below I added a link for a story out of Autoweek thats worth a look just for the picture of Junior Johnson. Anyone have a favorite story about them or one that you drove that was just incredible? When I was a teen (1977) I built a 327 .030 over for my 67 Camaro that was awesome. All junkyard/swap meet parts including the cam. (350/350 hyd. vette stick) Ran 14.0's in street trim and still got 16 mpg.
