Agreed on the first part, nay on the second part. Texas Speeds car weighs what, 12 lbs.? 15 lbs. with a full tank? All the lightweight crap on that car puts it out of the budget and out of the category of any other heads cam car done by a regular joe.
The s60/th400 car is a whole can of overkill.
Why do you suppose that is a whole can of overkill???many M6 guys put 9in rears/viper trans in their cars.
There is always room to grow...why build for today when you can get ready for tomorrow? Overkill...I don't think so...ready for tomorrow...you bet. Good Luck with it...

Nitro is an oxyginated fuel and I don't consider it NA,
using your logic, very little is "NA" anymore because normal gasoline with ethanol in it is oxyginated. and the majority of gasoline if not all has some ethanol. these are called RFG's.
Just heard from my builder (MC Racing) in Kansas City and they have just started tuning on my max effort 346 build. I should have dyno numbers later today or tomorrow. Attached below is the mod list, this car is a purpose built drag car and will never see the street.
Lets see some input on what power and torque the car puts down. I will post up dyno graphs later this weekend. Attached below are the modifications.
TrickFlow 215cc CNCd heads - decked for 12.0 compression and race gas

dont hate on the dude, he wants to build it strong and not have to worry about breaking stuff everytime he pulls up to the line, if he wanted everyones opinion he would have asked. good luck on the build!!!

10% is a lot different than 100%.

i payed $900 for my PRC heads, 231/237 cam was already in the car, and ported my own $750 FAST intake and made 452rwhp through a 9"/M6...and i drove it on pump gas on the street every day...i seriously doubt this "max effort" car will break 475rwhp and torque wouldn't be monstrous. i'm sure it'll be fast and fun to drive, but not a street car?
the only thing i see about it that makes it non-streetable is the radio was removed.

Who cares what it will make, it's how FAST the car is going to go for you. (assuming that's your goal mostly) You will make plenty of power to propel that thing to low 10s/high 9s easy. Spend more time on your chassis tune up and let engine guy handle that motor tune up.
Coop, Any numbers? Am interested to see. Good-luck

Ya know what one mans definition is may not be the same as the others... Obviously Coop is building HIMSELF a max effort 346 COMBINATION. Pretty big camshaft/decent compression/good parts....
Give props or give it a rest.............. Its ok if someones opinion is different than yours

Team - sorry, I have been sick this weekend. Car is being tuned but we believe the motor could be floating the valves above 5000 RPM's. My builder hopes to complete the tuning in the next couple days and I will post the dyno graph.
All the lightweight crap on that car puts it out of the budget and out of the category of any other heads cam car done by a regular joe.
