318 and 10's

rnaz, I think "stupid easy" is a little out of line. I don't see 10 second (390's) all over the place (or even at the drag strip). I think a 10 second street car with a small block is impressive, and especially if it's done without nitrous. How about it, 79aspenrt, more details???

The only reason you don't see them is because people don't build them too often. A 390 is virtually the same engine as a 408. Especially the Magnum headed ones. (Which I'm running).

My junk went high 12's on a 2.76 open diff, street radials, and no spray with a 390, and I drive it to the track.

I'm running 3.23's and a sure grip now, but I haven't made it back to the track yet to check the difference.
