Just the American Muscle one. Paint is perfect. Only con is it makes the hood heavy otherwise its awesome.....very aggressive looking.

You definitely want to do some work to the suspension. There’s no point in having all that power if you can’t put it down and do it in a controllable way. Also definitely do half shafts or they will break on you drag radials are known to break half shafts on much lower horsepower cars so I wouldn’t give yours very long before they go out.

Are you giving an opinion based on your actual experience running a high powered automatic S550 on stock axles and suspension or did you just pull it out of your ass? My car has been many passes with stock suspension and it tracks perfectly straight and hooks well "1.4 60 or better". I also have a buddy with a high 9 second s550 with 100% stock suspension and axles that does great. Another guy on this forum went high 8s multiple times on stock axles. Suspension on these cars is a nice to have but not mandatory by any means.

Yeah, suspension is nice to have but not needed, imo. I run low 10s consistently with just springs and DRs, stock half shafts and driveshaft.

Nice. So if i go with 3.62, E85, and a Lund Tune i should be in the low 10s hopefully.

 

[DavidHuff]
