Wish I could see that video at work. What kind of power is something like that putting down? Is twisting the frame a concern at all? I don't have a clue about Vette's( or drag racing), just curious.

I had to look up that block, running iron.
GD that thing moves.
I'd imagine him to be in the 1100-1300rwhp range

mph does not lye, i wouldn't say 1300, 165mph is closer to 950-1050hp, not saying that it doesn't make that much but his mph does not show it whether it was not turned up all the way or what, it also depends on the dyno they were on. 180 mph is closer to 1300

I thought you had to do two runs at the record time for it to be a record? Like back it up or whatever? Either way its a sweet ass corvette minus the wheels.
