I guess it kind of depends on the "possible nitrous."

Without it i think you would smoke him.

You going to be pushing about 9psi? I had a similar set-up, 8 rib D1sc with 2 4inch front mounts. It made right at 500 rwhp on 9 psi with full exhaust, blower cam, etc. I think you can handle him off the spray.

he needs bigger heads. tell him to get some afr 225s or tea 225 heads preferably the TEA heads

True, those heads are much too small for a 408. I wouldn't see him making much more then 430rwhp with that setup. Either way, he will need spray to run with you.

with a nice set up on the 408 I could see it being close even without the nitrous. But it seems to me like he should get a bigger set of heads. Either way if he can hook on the bottle I would think he will smoke you, off the bottle probably close

If he goes with a bigger set of heads and can hook it should be close off the bottle, on the bottle I'm saying he'll get ya.

If he stays with the combo you have listed, he'll need the bottle to keep up with ya.

Regardless it should be a good race, keep us updated.
