I have read dozens of posts regarding this subject and have talked to many people who race and just have fun on the street. It seems the biggest complaint was getting the h.p. to the asphalt without going sideways or spinnig them in all 4 (5) gears. I modified my chassis to allow the use of 335's (Khumo ecsta's) in the rear and Khomo victor racers uo front. With a 4 link, currie 9" (373), tremec 6-speed and a 392 stroker (450 h.p.) the car hooks unbelievably, with very little side to side and once it gets hold its gone. Needless to say, very satisfied. A far cry from original but thats a call each builder has to make when it comes to performance. What are you willing to sacrifice in the way of originality to gain performance?
