Personally I run naturally aspirated gen 3 powered challengers at 3400 lbs with Beefed up 727’s.
ET’s are 9.0s with a Transbrake.
These are not street driven tho.

I just asked this same question of my transguy. If I put a blower motor in my car, can I use my proflite trans or the turbo 400s and add a brake.
He responded turbo 400, Less service required, more readily available components as well for the 400.
