What suspension do you have? What size is your cam and is it a 6 speed or auto. I have a 402 stroker with a 252 245 630 615 on a 112* LSA cam and I make 499.5hp and 472tq. Also what was your 1/8th mile time the guy before me ran a 6.8 I am just trying to benchmark my car.

Yea I have L92 heads and stock 342 gears. I am hoping with the guy running 6.8 in the 8th I can get a 10.xx He is using a ccw drag pack and that is all. That car did sound a lot like mine, what lift is it?
