You can bench race all day long, there's only one way to find out.

if he didn't have all that gear, i'd go with the 454. all i can say is, if he is running good its should be close. :cool:

you will get him off the line- but I would bet on the 454 in the 1/4

1/4 the 454 will because his gearing and plus the torquey (sp) motor. Off the line definetely you. But if he were to upgrade the ignition system, intake manifold, headers, and a few other things and throw on some ladder bars then you are in for trouble. Too many 350's around, it is kind of like Mustangs, there are only so many things you can do to them and once you do something to them then your neighbor already has the same exact thing and your neighbors sister does to. See what I am getting at? Either way you have a nice set up. I like those trucks. Used to have a 72, not anymore.
Are they both longbeds or short or what?

Nope. I don't like them and that is the truth but there are some that I do like, like some old fast backs and such. Oh and your Mach 1 I am sure is nice, I know a guy up the street with a white one and blue stripes that is real nice, clean and plain. Looks great. But yeah, back on subject.

Since this thing is back up again here is a comment. Noone can tell anyone else who will win a race online by telling us the given information unless someone here can read the future.... I don't see anyone doing that anytime soon. :?
