    Tom Telesco has been racing the 64 Riv he bought new in 1964 since day 1.

    He is testing new roller rockers right now that dyno'd actual HP increases to the REAR WHEELS of 26HP - just with a rocker arm switch!

    If you have a nailhead, you should contact him. His name here is TELERIV.
    You don't have to sell me on screaming Rivs. I'm running mid to high 13s on a mild motor alone - WITH AC!

    Show us some pics!

    Jeff Mello who used to work at TA Performance has a `63 Riv. He has done a bunch of stuff to it but it is still daily driveable and last I heard went 13.0 (traction limited) @ 107 MPH. That is with a 3.30 posi and a Dynaflow. He also throws 100 HP of nitrous to it which puts it deep in the twelves (still traction limited).

    He has a Model-A roadster with similar engine and it goes in the 10's.
