My car runs exceptional for being lid only.. So much were pulling a valve cover to check the springs and push rods to ensure it is actually a stock internal car.

I have zero doubt that a properly driven 5.0 would edge me out.. However, i don't see it being more than a car, 1.5 cars at the very most and that would shock me, in the same 50-top of 4th run with a stock 5.0.

And it sounds like your car is strong. From what ive seen over the years and recently.....and im talking full weight stock gears, i think an F Body will need lid full exhaust and tune to run with me. But ya never know and thats why street racing is so much fun!

I have a completely stock engine and drivetrain with exhaust and a Gen 1 Whipple 2.3. I am not worried it is my DD. There are plenty of SRA, weight deprived, Eaton cars that are quicker than mine. With a name like 700hpMystic I just figured that he would have trapped higher than that is all.

I know. Also I have the slips from when I ran the Bullitt with an 03 swap and juice and he was around the 110-111mph region in the 1/8th. It seemed a bit slow was all I was trying to say.
I am not worried because I know I suck at driving a manual car.
That wasnt a hit on you like "haha you are slower then an eaton". But my point was ive never seen anyone in person out trap 96 in the 8th in an eaton cobra.. and that was a solid axle car on slicks with a ported blower. He could have upped the boost a couple lbs but that wouldnt bring him anywhere close to 105

You are way more honest than most people on here.....i like that! I basically daily drove an 01 SS SLP car with 373s for 3 years. It was very strong. I beat a lot of people in it.
And it sounds like your car is strong. From what ive seen over the years and recently.....and im talking full weight stock gears, i think an F Body will need lid full exhaust and tune to run with me. But ya never know and thats why street racing is so much fun!

Out of curiosity, where are you? I would be up for a small-ish road trip if you're not too far.
I've pulled a lid/full exhaust car by 4-5 so it may be decent!
I'm thinking in this good air, I might hit 90mph Sunday.
700Rwhp should be an easy 110+ mph car, even full weight.

I don't think you suck at driving a manual car, mine traps 100 mph in the 1/8 also.

Buddies pullied/A2W/etc 03... 480Rwhp... 92mph... He ported it later and made 510-515Rwhp but no track times.
No reason to bull ****, on a site with gear heads it gets called WAY too quick.

I am in columbus ohio....but my tranny is busted. Its gettin towed to the dealer tomorow. It sounds like your car is a beast man. Put it on the dyno!! And my pullied cobra went 96 in the 1/8. 3900 lb race weight.
