How about we line up... I have the same motor as Roy in a car that weighs about the same as your does (3150lbs)... I'll take my bottle out, as a matter of fact, I'll let you use my bottle to race me

Now I don't care about racing you. Go here. Many cars in your catagory.

I'd rather race other Vettes like Roy, irs w/ 6-speed.
Unlike other people I know when I finally put spray in my car, everyone will know!

so according to your calculations, how much power is my Autoworx 427 (same as Roy) making to trap 136 NA and 147 with a 150HP shot... and my car is a slower A4 that traps less, along with being an un-aerodynamic firebird, and has a race weight of 3400lbs...

Do you have more compression, bigger cam, bigger exhaust or lighter weight?
-It's with an A4 that traps lower than a C5
-In an Fbody that traps less than a C5/6 with the same power/weight
-My race weight is about the same as Roy
So according to your math I am making about 690RWHP+150HP nitrous... to run 147MPH or 690RWHP to run 136NA... holy smokes, I must have one hell of 427... watch out for Don, because he's coming out with the package in a C5

With your weight you need on average 650rwhp to trap your 136mph. That's got to be the fastest 427 on this forum!
