I have a question for you. I'd like to know if you ever dyno'd your motor and what your "Bracket" car weighs? Is it an automatic?

Reason I ask is it seems to me that a 383 bowtie Chevy should run a lot better in the 1/4 mile. I mean the far end speed not the ET. Were you running slicks? I just finished (Sept) my V6 powered Cobra and its best run has been 10.8 (MT ET streets) at 124. I think our motors are probably close in Horsepower but your car must be heavier.

I'm NOT screwing with you but trying to figure out why? My car weighs 2550 with me in it ready to go. I'm trying to get a handle on why so many high horsepower Cobra's run the times they do.

Regards,
