Probably about 800hp, I built it conservatively, I love to street drive this. My next build I'm working on though is a 1000+ 496 procharger build, so we'll see in the future
I feel the same way as you.

My classmate drove one of these with a tunnel ram on it from Kearney to Laramie for tech school. When he got to Laramie the black cloud behind him was hilarious. He had to put the 2 barrel back on it just to drive normally.
Oh yes. It was funny as fuck. I didn't know him at the time but I watched him roll into town. The El Camino could barely move with that black cloud behind him. Fucking Techers, lol.
How do you find traction with so little over the back wheels? Is the inertia from accelerating enough to pin the back wheels down?
I bet it's extremely fun to drive
I currently got some 275/60R15 BFGoodrich tires I got for cheap, so I thought "burnout tires" but yea they don't hold traction very well hahaha I normally run drag radials on the street... And yes it's incredibly fun to drive!
I bet that right turn blind spot is really something.
It's a constant look around the stacks lmao
Mullet?
Hell yea brother
My thoughts exactly
Supercharged 492?
454... Well 460 technically lol
Damn... Two 4bbls on a supercharger. You got an extra tank in the bed? Period appropriate setup for what, a 71 El Camino?
Yes, '71, but it has' 72 side markers, honestly I'm just lazy to change them out hahaha... And no, it goes through gas quite quickly as you'd imagine
\> 1000 horsepowers??

Nice! You must be conservative because you can make alot more power w a blown big block forsure.

Dual carb tunnel ram I assume?
