I ran 10.11 @ 125 with slipping tranny. I was all over the rev limiter the last 1/8th. The car should run 130 mph with current gears and tires. I think this would put it about 9.5 to 9.8 but, now I am scared to run it with the new tranny.

Yes, it still has all the lights and everything, heck it still has power windows and locks. Only thing removed is AC, PS, smog stuff, and back seat.

Now that I know it is making that much HP, I am concerned that 1 run would be the one that it comes apart. I have lots of money in the engine and tranny, I would hate for it to break the block and take everything with it. I would love to know the time it will turn but, I guess I will never know.

Wow!!! I hope I could get my block to hold that much power. Those are some pretty sweet numbers bro.
What S/C are you running? How much boost?

NOVI 2000, it has a slow build of boost to 15# at 6500 rpm. The engine breathes real good so the boost does not seem so high.
