Larry,
Give Mike Cook a call.
He knows the Pantera inside out,
is a member of the Bonneville 200 mph club
and is an all around nice guy.

Another reference is Al Bloomberg, who owns the worlds fastest pushbutton Pantera (205 and change from a 298" Boss 302, destroked for Class C/sports) in WA. From what I know of the sport, get an extra injection of patience, have lots 'n lots of money and a crew that doesn't need sleep.... Bonneville is around 6000 ft altitude and lowlanders are always surprised by rich carburetion and lower speeds at altitude. Finally, a Bonneville car is quite different from other racers: here, weight is your friend. A class-winning 'Vette weighed in at 5000 lbs with ballast.
Good stuff thanks Boss. larry
