Will this be fast?

[1973mach1]

IM having a 351c 4v made, solid cam/adjustable valve train etc. Im told it will put down around 450HP, I know this is alot of HP but im also putting it in a big car, a 1973 mach 1, IM wondering with a c4 tranny and 3:90ish gears will this be throw me back in my seat fast? I want something that will really take off.

Thanks,
Jim

with those 390s it will be a headthrower in my opinon. Sounds like a nice set up.

lose some weight off that tank. and ud be good to go. 450 in anything will be head throwing. make sure u set up the suspension too. to go putting 450 to floor without setting up the suspension.
