Agreed. I guess another part of my thinking was that an honest 500 ft/lbs of tq is completely unmanageable on street tires at WOT, will allow for donuts in a parking lot at any moment, and pull like a train everywhere in the power band. Dave from SD told me my TQ curve would be very flat and broad with the combo too. I don't see a downside to going with the 400 for a stick car really?
