If you want to build an N/A motor that runs low 10s, please do yourself a favor and buy the engine OR.
Ever thought of this? How about boosting a smaller engine?
That way you can build the engine (302's are easy as hell to build with all respects) and brag to your friends its your work, while they smell your exhaust!!!
My thoughts exactly.
There is a local racer here who runs a 306cid with a 300 shot and pulls 10.3's.
A guy I used to work with built a 302 cid twin turbo and ran a 9.6. A twin turbo mustang is a rare sight.
I'd rather go low rpm for longevitys sake. Especially since its a home built project. That would just suck to grenade your motor on the first outing because of a simple "newbie" mistake.
