i've been away from while...

here in Brazil is not uncommon to see 700-800 HP on wheels. no girdle, stock crank, just arp studs, forjed rods and pistons.

There was a chevy 250 twin turbo that made 1200HP and i think 8.5s on 1/4 mile.

I have a project to build a 1000HP - 200HP on nitro progress, i will use a girdle and a 4340 crank, i wont run 1/4 mile runs. but 3 kms top speed/acceleration runs! i think a stock crank will not hold! :-p
