just thought this might bring some fun to the forum. What would it take to get in to 11's 1/4 mile with a contour platform. If we already new we still might not get there because we might not have enough money. What would it take? Very broad but work with it.

Assuming the engine is fully built...about 500-550 whp, slicks, and some freaking strong axles shafts. Nobody has started stripping gears yet on the trans, so who knows how long those will hold out.

Build the motor with a forged bottom end. Do full exhaust, fuel upgrades then spray the living piss out of it. Around a 250 to 300 shot should do it.
