Well I finally got away from the spray!! HiTech motorsport built 408 and a F1R procharger. With a 4l80 and a 9 inch ford straight axle with 3:55-1 gears. Whats everyone think of that for a setup?

Yeah it should work pretty well I think I can knock it into the 8's but that will be pushing it pretty hard.

Very true, the car should certainly make the power. You just need a chassis now that can harness it. Bob

I'm going to assume your 408 is iron, if so do you still have your ls2 block?

Welcome to the darkside, where your car eats money at a rate that Bill Gates would be proud to earn. 13 seconds= 0$. 12sec= 100's$. 11sec=1000's$. 8sec in a 4k# car= priceless.
