I would hope they could do better than a 412 cid Ford Small Block engine (with a much bigger engine and 3 stages). Lets see some 7.40s.

1) The Ford has Nitrous (2 stages)

2) The Ford had a Dry Sump System
Fulton has a Dry Sump System

3) The Ford was running a Canted Valve "Old School" Yates head
Fulton is running a canted valve head.

4) The Ford was running a 10.5 W tire
Fulton probably has something better years later.

5) The Ford as was said was running basically a small engine (with rpm)
Fulton is running a much larger engine within 500 rpm of the Ford engine's rpm

6) Compression ratio is similar if you believe the posts on the board.

So how do these specs resemble a John Force plastic bodied vehicle with a Mopar engine?

no real Pontiac enthusiast gives a damn about what some Ford runs
1000s of max effort Fords out there, only a dozen or so all out Pontiacs
"old school" heads with 50 years of development compared to street heads worked over

a real comparison would be an FE Ford vs. Pontiac...not even close
