I'm hate to do it but I'm actually gonna defend ricers here! lol 4 cyl cars with the proper amount of money can be 9 second street legal cars. Are those not small blocks? Ok they just have small motors! But you can kinda get the point. As for that motor you guys do not know your history then, The windsor is an incredible motor!!! I know people that have traded their Chevy big blocks for that ford small block!!! Same thing with a 350, You can get more revs out of them and therefore have a longer torque curve. Same thing with r/c motors, you want more revs so you don't stop pulling down the straight.
Also did you guys factor in the gearing of the trans and diff? That has a lot to do with it. And the reduced weight. There are a 100 things you can do to a car to make it go fast!
Sorry for the poor quality, this is the car I've been helping with lately. 67 Chevy Camaro, 502, 8:71 supercharger, dual holley carbs, 200 shot NOS kit, Mickey Tompson. Anybody wanna bet on what this car will run? Has yet to see the track cause the owner is to scared to break it, and he won't let me drive it.
Your sound really dumb when you say NOS its called nitrous
