  . Last I heard your engine was in pieces and you were changing the stroke combo and selling off the extra parts? What the specs on it now? Have you had it out last summer? How does it run?
I REALLY wishing I could have went with an aluminum block for my street build to shave off some more weight.
Post some pictures when you can! I'd love to see what you came up with!

Hey guys,

What HP would be needed to break into the 9s? I know there are lots of other factors like weight, suspension, gearing, tires etc. Lets say for arguments sake a Cuda with decent suspension 4.88 gears and around 3400lbs with driver?  Any ideas what type hp would get the car into the 9s? Also what type of money would be needed for that motor?

Thanks,

Mark

I found this site.   http://stealth316.com/2-calc-hp-et-mph.htm

As you said.  Lots of factors. For 3300 lbs (car and driver) and optimum (there's the key and challenge) set-up, driver, etc. I'm figuring 750 HP+ for 10.0 ET.  Probably more. As is usual with such predictions.   


Edit ... here's another site .... http://www.ajdesigner.com/fl_horsepower_elapsed_time/horsepower_elapsed_time.php   its telling me I would need 672HP .. find that a bit low ... but tells me somewhere around 700-725 is starting goal.  Can always shoot for that NA and add some NOS to get you over ...

Thanks, I was thinking was going to be around the 700hp number. My plan is to get the most reliable engine hp I can afford NA then spray it like you said. So I am hoping I can build a 600-700hp NA motor and then use spray to break me into the 9s. I would love to run 9s NA though. It is hard to build a 9 sec street reliable motor on a budget.

Ya.     It would take, what, 20k at least. Probably closer 30 k.
