Well it says shakedown passes. I figured it is close to a 7 sec car if ran 8.8 on a "shakedow" pass. I am not pushing him to be faster because that is killer! Just curious what the car will do all out.

True. Based on the trap speed, the sixty foot (as quick as a 1.37 is, that suspension is easily capable of 1.2s) and the short shift I think there could be mid 8s in the car at it's current boost level.
With a few more changes I suppose it could ultimately go much quicker.

Could we possibly have another Quick 8 contender?

I don't know all of the details but it's a Cartek Performance Engineering built/tuned forged 347 with a Procharger, Powerglide and a Carroll's bolt in solid rear conversion.
