Rear is grenade proof as well is the tranny and the motor should hold as long as the heads stay on. like I said a 408 on a 400 with 505rwhp through a glide and slicks but 300lbs ill be a couple hundred more was going 5.2 in the 1/8th and that is close to a 7 sec pass in the 1/4. 4.5's is like 7.2's I think.....

haha good luck leaving on a 400-500 shot and trying to keep the nose down LOL.

When you do test n tune by all means let me know i'll come down there to watch.

you may want to grudge race my friend Caveman he has an 8 sec drag radial ride too.

I have limiters and plenty of suspension to keep the nose down im not worried about that. Im working with MADMAN on this set-up and he thinks it will leave just fine after it is dialed in. When it is running everyone will know, ill be posting through this build. You guys can check this thread out for my steering wheel install too. https://ls1tech.com/forums/drag-racing-tech/619500-steering-wheel-install-complete.html
