That 289 will light them up no problem. Of course you do tend to have to replace those rear tires more often then..;)

I'm running M/T 295-65-15 Drag Radials and it hooks really good! I have not done an all out launch from a dead stop yet but rolling it on it's been good! The front end feels REALLY light, the 1-2 shift feels like it's damn close to getting some air! Good fun but you wouldn't want to hit a slick spot!

Hi,
The exhaust sounds great, a lot deeper than my 5 liter mustangs exhaust. I modified circle track headers, they turned out good, then had everything ceramic coated satin black.
I set off a car alarm yesterday driving down the street:MECOOL:
