well i have the shortblock sitting in the garage. its a 308 with D.S.S pro pistons. i have slightly ported trickflow track heats that are getting milled a little. probably only to 58cc's. comp should be close to 10:1 or a little less. its getting a trickflow stage 2 cam and a eddy performer II intake, with 24 pound injectors sitting in it. all of the supporting mods will be there. i have FMS 1 3/4 quarter longtubes with 2.5 inch x pipe to dynomax bullet's dumped. the rear end will have 3:73's in it. i know more gear would be better. but i think they should be good enough for low 12's or high 11's with traction. think this thing can make 320 hp at the wheels with a little tuning? also how well does the eddy intake match up to trickflows.

I hate to sound like all the "custom cam or nothing" guys on here, but if you don't plan on any other changes to your combo then I would go with a custom cam. Get a bigger TB/MAF and some more gear would be nice. Thats a nice combo you got there and 320 to the ground should not be a problem. With traction I see you reaching your goals pretty easily.
