Not a bad choice Allen made, but a bit conservative.

I COULD spray the car INTO the 9's with a good fuel system!If It was fully tuned for the 150 shot as it,i could go 10.90's.If I fully tuned it then sprayed it Hard It would go 10.0's 9.90'....

I dont like nitrous much if I had to pick a power adder it would be blown like my Blown 57 Chevy...

well i think he was keeping in mind that i drive 70+ miles daily, and sometimes that can be in traffic.
eventually ill buy a daily beater and make the fbody more extreme.

It's not like you need to drive to the store to get a gallon of milk and hit the button in the parking lot.
