dream LTx build
SMALL solid roller, like 228/23x 114lsa .62x/.6xx. thru a 2004r and a 9" with 3.50 gears and mt drag radials.
with a 6 speed you can get there fairly easy with a hydrolic cam but wont get very good track numbers

I dont even get dyno numbers anyway for example 2 cars both making 500 rwhp one with say a th400 and one with a m6
in my exp the auto will run a 10.3@130 and the M6 will run a 11.0@122 or so @3200 lbs.I dont understand its like dynos lie and really like the 6speeds
I guess I would rather run faster on the track then the dyno

My brother's '03 Cobra with ported blower, pulleys, CAI, programming, and cat-back made 505 rwhp through an M6. He ran low 12's at 118 mph.
My Z28 with a 383, AFR, cam, and Vortech T-trim (old combo) made 545 rwhp through an A3. I ran 10.40 at 133 mph.
So, with 40 more rwhp, I ran 15 more mph at similar weights.
...I'd rather do it with a LS2 427ci with L92 or LS7 heads though...Thats my dream build period. Put in a Fox body mustang...Man, what terror that would be!
TH400 with a denny's nitrous shaft and 9" is probably like low 20's... I figured about 23% from what my quarter mile times/MPH were at my raceweight.... dyno is a tool... it is NOT a comparison of who can beat who.....
Hell I've punched holes in several dreamers that put down 680+ RWHP with their blown LS1's.... With my paltry all motor 480ish RWHP...... dyno #'s don't mean shiet....

its exactly like outlaw explained
The Best V8 Stories One Small Block at Time
that looks hideously badass...... I'm eventually going to go big single..... i'm going to front mount mine up in the bumper tho with the inlet facing the nose of teh car tho...
I love the tubular work on the nose that you did as well to fit the radiator.... really clean work on that badboy....
