870-900hp is plenty to run 8.90 at 3100, but the car needs to be on point. Well within the reach of a good -1 head for sure. I personally would likely use a B1 head(I know big surprise)but we always wanna go faster dont we. So why max out a head when you can have ore room to grow. Dyno numbers are dyno numbers but an HONEST 875 should get you there in a good car. Its simple math. FWIW my old Valiant went 9.0s at 150 with a stock block 511 with a B1 originals at 3470lbs.
Wes sent you a PM, just curious if its still available.
True.
My old Dart was similar weight as Al's Valiant, BMRE KB alum 540" 920HP on Vince Impasato's dyno, B1 O's with minimal work done and went best of 9.17/148 N/A with glide, cam/4.10 gear/converter setup for nitrous on a so-so track and 30" ET Streets. I think you will definitely achieve your goal N/A, especially if the car is working and on a good track.
Al, it's gone brother. PM'd you back.
