 I'm putting a 496 together with my friend, and would like to know what a good combo would be for a mostly strip app.
 
 I want a radical motor with about 6-700 hp.
 
 The street use would be a quick run to a local car show not more than 10 miles one way. I want to go solid roller but the horror stories you hear about a SR on the street turn me off. If we go hyraulic, the motor will be whimpy on the track.
 
 I know, I know, there's no such thing as a true street strip motor. I hear this all the time. But this is going to be in a Camaro, not an Impala with car seats in the back.
 
 The 427 that's in it right now pushes about 400 or so. It's fast on the street as you can only go so fast legally. If a show is far, the car goes on a trailer, period.
 
 Any suggestions besides forgetting it?
