That is going to be a hog! But it will be quick as hell. Rememeber in "Back to the Future" how the car kept leaving burning tire tracks? Yeah, lol.

You will need a hell-of-a transmission to handle that.

Your gonna want alot more than just a shift kit in the tranny. I would use hardened races, kevlar clutches, Vette survo, bypass your 2nd gear accumulator for hellacious 2nd gear scratches. Oh and I would put about a 2500 stall in it too!
