That put down seems to be thrown at everything these days that is outside the proverbial old school box of hot rodding.
To the SS owner who is certain that 8 second ET's require at least 1800 hp, obviously you're wrong. I compliment you on your ride however there's a whole other performance world out there outside 5.0's, L99's, 392's, LS3's and the heavy cars they propel. Obviously there is more than one way to skin a cat.
I've said this before and I'll say it again. Doesn't really matter to me what's under the hood, I dig fast cars, period.

The difference between 8.70 and 8.02 is several hundred horsepower. I stand by my previous comment. This car does not make the power to run an 8.02, or anything close to it. The AMS car is making close to 1400 and it's in the mid 8s (8.42@171) completely gutted with a full cage+net. (1181 wheel horsepower). They will need at least 300-400 more horsepower to get four more tenths out of the car. A heavy street car like the one at said dyno would need even more.
