Response to Nice combo

This engine will have limited street use as I did cement the block and the oil temps do come up as seen on the dyno.I could have run coolers to keep it cool but it is going to be a 1/4 miler.The engine does have easy manners and will idle at 900 rpm all day, I think anyone looking to run this combo on the street should stay away from cementing as it probably not needed until a higher hp is reached.The engine is going into a 73 cougarxr7 that I've owned since 81.The car is being painted as we speak and putting in roll bar and sub-frame connectors.I'll run 4.56 gears 4500 convertor and rollerized c6 with trans brake,the slicks are m/t 29.5 by 9 by 15 with caltracs and the car weighs about 3600 withme in it.Any estimates on et would be welcome. Thanks Steve
