I opened my big mouth the other day at the o'rieley nationals with my brother-in-law and father-in-law right in front of me. Well, I said that when I replace the ragged out 302 engine in my cougar that it was going to run 12s. They laughed so I'm going to have to show them whats up. Well, it is going to be awhile before I swap the engine but I need to start planning right now. I'm thinking I'm going to need about 400 Hp at the crank to put down 12s. To make sure I need to know the weight of my car. It is a 68 302 w/ C4 and air. I know it has to be around 3500# I'm just hoping it is less.
Thanks

Oh, to run 12s I'm going to use a stroker 351/393. I might even get some 6.5 Litre emblems, but I hate wana be's so maybe not. With that many cubic inches I could run the stock 69 heads but if I weigh more than I think then I will have to go to some world products Sr. heads.
