Well,

If it dyno's like it sounded, I will be one happy camper.

Will have more info later tonight.

ohhh yeah you will have plenty of fun out of that motor..it makes almost the same numbers as my wifes MILD 406..with 520 lift cam......her car will run 7.40's in the 1/8th..with MT ET Streets 28x10's with a 4.56 gear thru the mufflers at 3300lbs with me driving and i am 220lbs......this is also foot braking..
if we drpped the muffflers put on a pair of 10 inch slicks and a transbreak ..it will run some 7 teens......

you can bet your car will run just as good but a little more forgiving on the street with your 3.70 gear......her gear is a little much for the street with those short tires...


Carl your car will handle all these younger boys store bought mustangs etc,.. on the street..i have always said that a true 500 hp motor is a STOUT motor....


good luck.....by the way what kind of tires will you run..they make some good street drag raidals now..

later brian..also i cannot find your ad in show off..help me here a little..
