I've done quite a few...there are never a lack of smiles!

The weight isn't the best option for a true corner carver. Large cube LSx would be more ideal if this is a concern. It'll still handle with the right springs and sway bar...just be a a few % heavier on the nose.

If you have e85 available, you can run without an air to air intercooler which will be your biggest concern to cool the car. Next option would be pump gas/water meth setup. Either will make much more power than the street can handle. If you feel an air to air is required, the air ducting and fans play a crucial role in cooling the car with a large restriction up front.

I have a 572" BBC w/ twin PT76GTS in my 55 Chevy. It'll run 150mph on 15lbs of boost (e85/watermeth) in the 1/4 mile. It's a beast at 4000+lbs but the 4L80e and extras really play a large part aswell. Scares the crap outta anyone that rides beside me!
