I haven't taken it to the track yet. A similar engine ran 7.30's at our local 1/8 mile track. So, this car will also run in the lower half of the 7 sec bracket. I assume that will = the upper half of the 11 sec zone, on a 1/4 mile track, as a footbraker. Or, you could obviously make it a little quicker, if you wanted to.

I would estimate the hp at 425, and the torque at just over 500ft lbs.

"...I was thinking of retarding the cam 6* to try to tame it down a little.
What do you think?
It's going to be broke in on a test stand so if it's really too wild I can change it out.

I'll maybe put in a vacuum can..."

I would not waste any time or $$ trying to use that cam for a street driven car.
