You guys are right about that the name of the game is now applied horsepower, my 67 GTA has the 390 rated at 320HP, and i have only been able to run a 15.4 @90 with it, granted thats not really launching on street tires, but when a Notchback fox can run mid 13's with just an exhaust system and maybe 240HP at the Crank, it still amazes me, and on my first time at the track with my truck i only ran 14.5 with a motor rated at 435-475(Comp Cams Guy) so you fox guys keep hauling ass, and hopfully soon ill be joining you with a 5.0 of my own
