    I just hope you don't get to much traction.
    With the extra torque of the BBC you may just tear the rear end right out.

    I broke the rear end out of a 85 Monte I had.
    It was just a 383 with 400 hp and a 125 shot of N20.
    I was launching it at 3,500 rpm's without the bottle.
    It just about shoved the spyder gears out the back cover.
    It was a long walk home.
