Runninghorn Put a big block in it with alum, heads,waterpump, 125hp nos kit and you will be in the ten"s with slicks and not have to 7000 rpm a small block. Double vemon doesnot show the whole picture, while his car is a master piece of engineering the six foot wheelie bars are not in the picture. I have seen this car run Every launch it wants to stand on the rear bumper and runs 11's all day in 95 temputures on the track. I know one of these days that motor is going to get bigger and badder. Low ten's or high nine's are not out of the question. McLoed make's a soft loc clutch that leaves like an automatic and run faster with a five speed. The clutch cost about 1300.00$ but you leave at 5 grand and not blow the tires off the car. I am putting one in my car, they say it will knock about 1/2 second off a 12 second car 1/4 mile racing when set up CORRECTLY.
Good Luck with your new car
