Default The beast goes a new best

The beast goes 6.88 @ 100.00 MPH

Not a bad start for N/A on a new motor.

Hi how is it going. I bought Chuck's Hissey 98 But have been struggling with motor problems Do you have GTP head also? I was wondering What kind of dyno # your 408 is making and what king of trans, conv, gear and tires you were running? Great run I hope to have my problems fixed by spring so we can see how it runs

Hey mine is now a 434. I have a set of heads built by a local race shop through Speed Demon. I'm running a yank SYE 3600 and 3.42 gears on ET streets. I looking to get faster as she breaks in. It put down 463 RWHP and 541 RWTQ with a base tune. I hope you get everything worked out
