408 guys inside please. I am looking at getting a 408 soon in my 98 T/A. I blew the stock motor up a few months ago. I was running 11.50's with my old setup and haven't seen much using the search. What I am looking for is high 10's N/A. Is this possible with the 408 or am I wasting my time? The perticular motor I am talking about getting is the cartec 408fe longblock. Streetability is not an issue this is a track only car. Any inputs you guys have would be great in helping me make a decision real soon. For more on the the rest of my cars setup, I will be running FAST 90/90, TH350, and a 9". Thanks

If you cant get into the 10's with a dedicated track car 408, then fire your engine builder. Honestly if you are doing a dedicated track car and cant run in the 9's NA then you have something wrong if your suspension can get you there
