If you have a single 375 its pretty good
But if yo have a twin

Unless the 350's are 377's with blowers and blackhawk drives, then it's a scary 90+mph ride...................

I'm just trying to ger a handle on how I'm doing performance wise with my 94 29. I'm running carbed 350 mags , alphas , 23 pitch laser 2's , 61 mph@46-4700 r's on the gps. My bud has a 96 with mpi's , bravos , 23p mirage plus's and runs like 68 on the gps @ 5000. Guess that is right with the equipment I have. Thanks for the replys!
