It takes 600 or so HP to get a 3200lb Mustang into the 10.00 range, so Id say your just about right on the power number. You shouldnt have too much trouble getting the weight down to 4000lbs. Mine weights 4000 even on the track scale (w/o me). It might be time for a mini tub to keep some ultra-fat slicks under the truck. Something like 15" wide.. That would look awesome!

The only times I have heard of is a guy in my area with those kind of times, has put a nas car engine in his truck, top of the line everything,persons name is unknown to all.I have seen it personally, the truck runs 10's or better at 800HP at 8000RPM,the word is it was Darrell Jerits old engine.Hoping to run into him sometime to see exactly what the scoop is.

feind of mine runs 10.9 with a t trim at 20 psi a box top sheet metal intake and heads and cam and mass air. laferrie racing put it together hes got 700+ at the wheels but he still drives it on the street to. his biggest problem is keeping trannys together. the truck is plain insane. at 4000#'s it can lift the wheels 2-3 inches at launch from a stalled up launch on the brakes an with absolutley no traction device on 30x13.50 slick and skinnys up front all sitting on bogart rims. he was forced to put a cage in it after back to back 10.90's and he has sold the heads intake and t trim, and the rumor is bigger fox lake heads a diff itake combo and x trim are in its future
