With a fast, possibly.

Remember though, dynos and big stalled autos go together like peanut butter and sour cream.

Good lord that's a lot of cam. Oh and I only got around 200-220 for a long time on my STOCK cam. Then I started being nicer to it and would get 250ish

I installed the cooler 1yr 1/2 ago anticipating the rebuilt..
88k is nothing, throw that stall in there you'll wonder why you never did, it makes the car like night and day. I had 14x,xxx when I did my stall, the trans finally gave up at 188k. But it was a very hard 188k, put a big cooler on it and keep the fluid changed it will last.

Why?

For as much as a cooler costs, and as much as it helps.. Why would you not have one?
What size converter, I'm going to guess 3200?

I love telling people I dyno 370Rwhp... They usually expect to race a normal 370Rwhp car.

No, that was motor... I had a nitrous tune on the car just never got around to spraying it.

Should be real close to 600Rwhp on a 150 hit.

Easy enough to get bottom 10s with everything working right.

On a 200 hit I will shoot for mid 6s.. Hopefully hit some high 6.3s/6.4s with everything working right. Should be close to a low-mid 10 pass.
