The bonzi 8.80 ET is still short of 1100 HP. Once again HOW many passes were put on this combo? And how many were in the 8.80 range? I've gone 8.60's-8.80's with a stock non-filled no girdle engine at a MUCH lower weight and the block was cracked after 275 passes and was still running 8.60's before I took it apart for rebuild. Mine were also with the weaker 440 (RB) block.
Don't get upset. I cant give you documented, witnessed evidence of every teardown and pass the car made. "bonzi" run was one of maybe 20 runs in the 8s. The years before were (est 200- 300 passes) Oh yeah, driven to the track on pump gas/ mufflers. There is a really bad youtube video that shows probably 4 or five 8 second passes. I cant remember the link. search "trendz 8 sec" So, what did you figure a car would have to make to go 155 at 3700 lbs? Assuming I'm telling the truth(which you don't) Just takes me further into the belief in what I stated about how dependability is directly related to HOW power is made. I suggest turbos for the doubters
Timing in the low-mid 20's?
If the aftermarket would get their head out of their collective butts and put a combustion chamber in a mopar head a few decades newer than 1958, you could make decent dependable N/A power in that timing range too.
