well his car can only handle 400rwhp so to be safe could only run 380rwhp at the most. they s/c might be able to put out those numbers but his car will blow up

I'm making 420 WHP with no problems on stock shortblock... plenty of people have gone 440+. 450 is about the limit, your safe at or below 420 whp generally (anything can happen).

regardless, 400-420 will be hard to hit without a midpipe and maybe LTs. I would guess a catback only car would make something around 360-370 WHP with a i/c 10 PSI vortech setup.

Your 1/4 mile time will depend on your traction. If you can hita 1.8 or 1.9 your looking at a mid 12, if not high 12s until you get some suspension work/tires.
