Those are the wrong engine pics, thats the squire engine, picture that engine with no AC, power steering or fan (I have a electric water pump and fan set up).

The dragster may hit perhaps high 11s low 12s. If not, I still got work to do. I wanted to convert it to a EFI system with a mafs and super charger, my dad said no it'll be fine the way it is. Wait to you see the cruiser next year, my dad do what ever I please with it (there are no icons to show my devilish plans).
