We had a Chevy van with a 408 and a 4 speed running in the Pro-Stick club that I was in. It would would run 11:50s all day with the front wheels two feet in the air. Then there was a guy with a 78 Dodge van with a 340 in it and NOS running low 11's and taking peoples money on the street like no one business. With enough HP you can make a brick fast
