we have street trucks that run mid to high 6's in the eigth down here in Texas.
Tagged and inspected drivers!

your 402 should be able to achieve an 8.50 motor and a high seven with a little spray.
If not you built a boat anchor.
sorry eigth mile junkie here.

the only weight you need to lose is the caked up grease on your crossmember when your engine is out.
run a mini spool with some 3.08's 150hp pill should get a high 7. get the front end where it will pull up 6 cyl springs soften the backend( wore out springs, run some good slicks and your there. If not you went to conservative on cam and carb . Save yourself the headache and run a 850 double pumper,mallory ignition. the challenge to make a big block truck run 12's isn't much of a challenge. Try making a small block truck run 12's that were driveability and all comes into play. The 3500 converters don't like traffic lights. LOL.
