Not Ranked
Lol, yea I always laugh when I read the "How much HP is enough" posts.
Originally, i was going to build a 598 (4.500x4.600). But Lem & Charlie Evans talked me down. LOL
They said "Boy, that thang will light the tires like a Nitro funny car if you put a long stroke crank in it, you just cant hook that kinda torque"
I asked the guys a 460.com what they thought it would make. The low estimate was 800hp, the high was 950hp.
I want it will make 900-920hp.
It should easily run in the 9's at over 150.... so long as it goes straight......
My goal is to run that Car and Driver 0-200-0 deal. It would be nice to have a Cobra in the competition that actually brought a gun to the gun fight. You need way more than a Roush small block to run with a 1000hp Ford GT.
I think we would put a serious scare into those big turbo guys out to about 150-160mph.
Shoot, Ill even bring a Comp windshield for fun.
