Forget about the HP, but my car runs mid 10s in full street trim. And so I'll add that...
- my wife is scared of the car after driving it around in a parking lot... and that was before I swapped the power steering for manual
- one of my best friends is scared of the car after I let him make a pass at the track in it... and he backed off and only ran in the 12s
- the tires are "spin happy" if you don't watch the throttle... the whole CAR is "spin happy" when the roads aren't dry
- it's not tiring to drive, other than the 3" exhaust is kind of loud and there's no AC for the summer heat & humidity

Big-block E bodies are simply not balanced driving machines, unless you strap 'em down w/ anti-roll bars front & back, stiff shocks, etc. And then they don't hook worth a crap at the track, because they need the weight transfer to keep from just sitting there and spinning the tires off the rims.
