How big of a shot? I run a C4 in my car with a 5500 stall and pro-brake....but I am all motor (a lil over 700HP).

Get a well built c-4 and you will have no problem with stall or juice. C-6 are heavier and take more horsepower.

you could get well into the low 10's with a 100 shot with the right suspension and tires. A built 427 could go into the 10's on motor if properly built for a drag only car.
