I hope that car has a really strong bottom end and a good tune. Im just saying that because it says it has 11:1 compression and is running a 250 shot of nitrous.

If you were to do something like that to a II, do you have to strengthen the body so it can handle it? I was told that the body twists too much if it has too much power... is this true?

You have to do that with any car, especially unibodies. Some subframe connectors and a good roll cage will do.

true, my dad has a 78 Cobra and from all of the hard launches, the body has twisted, cracking the paint along the C pillar (where the hatch bolts onto). Kinda sucks too. But I guess it gives him bragging rights, saying that the car has enough power to twist itself, eh?
