hi guys ,when are we going to see a 9.00 sec sc or is it possible. Seen many 9.00 sec GN 3.8 we cant let gm have a leg up on us ford people.
Anyone who thinks SC's are slow has not had anything to do with some of us. Some of us are not intimidated by anything on the street and hold our own pretty well at the track too. Too bad we are so few and far between.
Unfortunately in the end our weakpoint will be the factory block,,,How much can it take.

So what did your car run Anthony? If you dont want to tell, at least share the trap speed.SilverCasket said:As I did last night running at the track through 6k rpm range (*thanks for the insight dave*) without a problem CONSTANTLY!!

You can get a steel billet crank....You can get H beam rods....You can get aftermarket forged pistons..You can even debur and get a girdle for your stock block..
The stock block is the weakpoint for the built up 3.8 period.
Perhaps 450 or so rwhp seems like alot of hp for most of you but in the game of HP is really isnt much...Start making real power out of the 3.8 with all the goodies..Guess whats going to go....Ive split stock 302 blocks in half at the 750 rwhp mark....I'm sure the 3.8 block has its limitations as well. Noones made enough power to not break everything else but the crank yet.
