Looks like some good builds in this thread. As for a t5 behind a 408, god help you. Granted, I've never used a gforce gear set or anything truly upgraded, but I'm on my 4th or 5th rebuild with just a 306 in front of my t5.

It has a G force kit its been good I didn't power shift it and has run as fast as 11.20
it has more in it I think its still running a little fat on the tune and that was in a almost 3400 lb car (with me in it)

Thanks I cant remember what kind of dyno it was but was 400 HP and 456 torque @ the wheels but its just a number I think its higher than that when I could trap a 123 in Woodburn Oregon of course thats pretty close to sea level and here at my track which is about 2750 feet higher on hot days it would trap 120 with the weight of the car in at about 3400 with me in it
