This truck runs 12's on the motor and 11.60's with the squirt. It is an Edelbrock headed Pontiac 455. It can be done, but the weight is a killer.

In a 2600# car, 350 RW HP will get you in the low 11's. In a 4000# vehicle, figure low 13's or possibly high 12's. Check out http://www.hybridz.org/ubb/ultimateb...;f=13;t=000247 for a weight/power discussion.
