430 HP in a 3rd Gen...HELP!!
Ok heres the deal, I am pretty much sure I am getting a 430 HP Chevy 350 w/ dart racing heads, high rise, 9:73:1 compression off of ebay. It will still run on pump gas.... My car already has a built t-350 that will bark all the gears with the 305. My questions are as follows...One-What would your guess be that my 82 Z28 would run time wise with this setup. And Two- What all would I need to add to make this streetable and not breaking anything. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks!:lala:

Go with a 9 bolt(3.45)(3.27) until you can get a 12 bolt. If the converter is small you may wanna go up. I'm assuming with that much hp the tq peak(being carbed) is gonna be quite higher than stock so a 2800 stall may help it more than any other mod...

If the car weighs around 3500 with you in it, it should do around 12.8's. I would suggest getting some suspension upgrades. shocks, springs, control arms, polyurthane bushings.
