Musta been a 6. No offense to our cars. But stock for stock a 95 will not outrun a 05. Unless the driver didn't have legs.

How many miles does your engine have?

It's going to cost alot more than 3000 to make a motor have 450 reliable horsepower. Not to mention you will break everything else on the car if you build just the motor. That's also pushing the limits of a stock 302 block.

Btw, start a new thread don't hijack the original poster's thread.
