i agree lets see some pics. i dont think you need a new tranny though i have a friend running 10.60s on the stock t-5 tranny and hasnt event touched it our had any problems, he has a 331 with 10.1:1 cr and a vortec s/c pumping 9psi on top of that so i think the stock tranny is pretty strong. sounds like it'll be a fun car though. have fun!!!!

its do able. Im using a 347 with r-series heads from tfs. the trick is getting the right cam made and you HAVE to get it custom doen to keep something that big streetable. Ive got a tfs track heat intake on there right now but will end up with the race series with that yet again im sure...

I can't forget, Diablo is making me a custom chip of course which will help the numbers and streetability

you might want to consider some larger rear axles real soon, especially if you plan on running slicks at the strip.

I wanted to keep it N/A as long a possible... a s/c is an option in a couple years but thats just insane to think about right now lol

that would be badass 400rwhp then with a kenny bell you could get 550ish and still be streetable, that would be one sweet 94

The only thing is, how much can a 302 with 60k on it hold? at 550rw id be scared of it cracking open.
