Re:  Pump gas drags


Seems like it's tough to beat big blocks in these things... raw cubes can produce more HP on lower octane.

Really, a 580 inch big-block with a couple of 76bb turbos on ~18-19 psi would be tough to beat. 80e for a trans.

Outside of that, a built small block with similar sized turbos, and some reeeely good heads.

I think from a traction angle, you could play. Can get around the 11" tire thing, easy.

Big question is the "water injection" part. Is Methanol ok, or just water?

Gotta be a solid 8 second player, then back the thing off to mid 9s.  We're not terribly consistent, neither are the buick guys,
which is why they generally don't play.

I'd still build the biggest block I could, with turbos, and the water injection. You could make 1500+ HP. 
Putting that to the ground, would be the big deal.
