I would try and go 200 in the Mule with a grill plug, a better chin spoiler and a parachute for emergency stopping power. When the car went 200 on the dyno it was at 760hp to the wheels and 12psi. It did the run in .87 of a mile.
The boost on the engine dyno was about 16psi to produce 4 digit power.

Any newer Mustang dyno can simulate aero drag. The only problem is the programing does not go older than 1973. For the Mule's run we called it a 73 Nova as that is a comparable aero car, probably a little worse than a 69 Camaro. Just before the dyno screen switched to the overspeed warning, I saw 202 in the mph box. It was very loud in the cell and I am glad I was there.
