we have about 180lb.ft at 2000 but you're actually hitting the nail on the head...all that low end torque will have alot of guys having too much wheel spin off the line...its is the launch that seems to determine weather i win or lose a lighly modded 99+GT when i go against someone that knows what he's doing he puts 1 to 2 cars on me out of the hole than i pace him in usually resulting in a 9.2 to 9.4 loss for me in the 1/8th on the other hand if i get the light and he doesnt get his best launch it could go either way ....on the street much easier for the GT guy to blow the launch,let's face it there not all track guys...i might have a friend for you to hook up with in texas...and he too is no ricer...oh you wanna see a dyno of the short block i hope to have installed here shortly.
