Even if its a 350, it doesnt mean its over. We really need to know the year, you could have a 3rd Gen IROC-Z with the TPI 350 and thats still a dog. Even if its a stock LT1 that wouldnt be somthing to worry tomuch about.

How does he know its 400+ hp tho? Unless hes dynoed it he prolly is way under that... He just likes to think it has more then what he wants to admit... Its still a fast car though.. You shouldnt underestimate it...

ORIGINAL: dreamz

800cfm carburator not sure on fuel pump but his meter read some where around low 50 psi
IIf he is sporting a carburetor then the PSI shouldn't be that high at all more like 7-20 psi. About the race could be close, to close to bet a car. Why don't you ask the drive for the damn specs, like the lift on his cam if he has one, does it have stock 305 heads, is it a 471 SC or smaller, Why the hell did you bet a car when you don't even know what your racing???????[:@]
