I'd say 400 FWHP. Maybe mid 14's in the quarter. That's based on 320 RWHP and a 5000# truck.

Here's a cool link for you guys to mess with. Just look on the page for calculators and see what they do. Let me know what you think. These things are great for calling BS on somebody when they are running their mouth.

Don't forget to reduce your HP by .2-.25 for drivetrain loss. These calculators operate off wheel HP. So a 250 HP engine is reduced to 200 HP at the wheels.
