My Backdraft has a Roush 427r with a 370 rear. I can tell you from experience that standing stop launches are a challenge because the car is so light and powerful, 550 HP. It will break tires free in 3rd gear. It is intimidatingly quick.
My BDR has a 351w stroked to 418 with about 525 hp. Lots of issues trying to keep the tires glued to the pavement even going into 4th..Using a stopwatch it does about 3.6sec. 0-60. If I ran some slicks on a sticky track, I would say it could do about 3.3.
