A couple of months ago, someone posted a link to a ET calculator. You entered the weight of the car, as well as the back wheel HP, and it spit out your 1/4 mile time. It also worked backwards as I recall. Do a search here or on google for it.
With some of today's new rice rockets getting into the 5's for 0-60 times I was wondering what kind of 0-60 times a stock GT with a stock 2.4 and well functioning fuel injection might realistically get....?
Anyone know?

No, that's not a defect, that's a feature.
A standard '69 GT does about 10.8 seconds 0-60 according to June, 1969 Road & Track magazine.
Looking at much less than 8.5 to 9 seconds with a standard 2.4 would probably be a bit optimistic .....
