Anything can be fast with a motor swap, you think I swapped in a beast *** motor that put down 236hp at the wheels?

I get 17 city and 25 on the highway with a v6, not a motor swap......

When I head out to the 1/4 mile next weekend, I should be running 13.2-13.4. I rather run low 13's than run low 12's and get 10mpg.

dude i have a 364 and my truck is WAY heavier than yours and i get 22 highway. lol your fuel economy would go up!! Cuz all that horsepower would carry you along much easier. read an article about the owner of nitrous express built a firebird with a duramax diesel engine in it and it made 1350hp and got 35 mpg.

I'm going to Dyno & Re-Tune my VMax and then run the 1/4 in about 2-3 weeks though. Hopefully it doesn't disappoint me...
