Well dyno numbers might not mean much to you, but they do matter when considering the limitations of the engine safety wise.

every dyno reads different so even using it to judge that may not be accurate. lets say i want 275whp on motor and around 400 on spray just for guesses, as i'm not sure what it'd take hp wise to run the times i want.

Should lighten the image up a little bit. Looks a little too dark... Be honest, you saw my car and were like, "damn I need a blacked out new edge" weren't you? j/k

For reference, my 2001 2V Bullitt has HiTech Stage II cams, long tubes, UDP, CAI, custom tune, 4.10s, DRs, and handling suspension upgrades. Stock heads exactly as they came from the factory.
It makes 300rwhp and consistently runs 12.80 with NO CLUTCH ABUSING HIGH RPM LAUNCHES and 1.85 60' times.
If it had P&P head work it would gain another ~12-15rwhp.

I would think with a little trans tuning and 3800 stall w/ the same mods I have, you could run mid to upper 12s all day long on motor. I suspect that you could break into the 11s with 375rwhp, so no more than a 100 shot would be required to get there.
