Patrick's comments:
I've raced many things from a roll....a Syclone, few T/A's, a Z28 SS, LT1 Corvette....all indicate my mph should be in the 100-103 range [that's between 350 & 400hp on a rig this big - rpm] with the 5psi pulley...which will change, soon! RPM - Above times were in terrible weather condidtions. Patrick says that LT! Fbody's were runnin' 95 mph in the 1/4 for an indicator of how the truck is performing. On a good weather day an LT1 Fbody will easily run near 100mph.
