If you assume a race weight of 3500 pounds, your going to need about 650hp at the crank to break into the 9s, assuming a very well tuned chassis. I think a t76 is capable of that given a properly designed system. Just my 2 cents. I am sore guys will more experience can be even more helpful.

im going to say its too small for those cubes. Kyle had trouble with his 76 on a 370. I say check out an 88mm for that 402.
