Yo Chris, what about a build that's that fast and else simple and keep the car light weight and uncomplicated and easy to work on that runs cooler. I say a 440ci ls7, here is my thinking is as fast as you can hook up on the street if you are lucky, I'm thinking 600whp N-A take a look at [my new N-A project] under my user name in the gen 4 internal engine section I think your TA can go sup 10 secs in st trim with drag radials, best regards,

David
