Horsepower and tires.

Just keep throwing money at it till you go as fast as you want to.

Hot Finger's Chev powered Cobra run's in the 9's He has about 800 hp.


a 302 stroked to 347 should get you 450 - 500 hp.

a 351W stroked to 408 should be about 525 hp. This set up is easy to drive around town and IT's Fast.

Of course you need great tires and the suspension set up to use the horsepower (TORQUE) you have.
