got a redline torker manifold( 2 barrel) with a 350 holley (might g bigger if fuel prices come down) got some pacemaker extractors on into a single 2.5 inch exhaust.. converted to a 4 speed manual

Answer 1

You didn't say how high the cam lift was,. but no matter, I would have went with the 4 barrel carb (you know you want it). You didn't mention suspension, you will need to beef up your suspension if you want to keep it from dovetailing, you can lose precious time dovetailing and tires, what kind of tires are you using? Time and speed is up to you, how well you red line and shift, most fast times are a result of the driver and not so much the car.

Answer 2

My guess would be in the 15 second range.
