Is it possible to run 10s n/a with a 3V and...

according to blowbyyou's web site their agressive h/c motors make about 385rwhp in an M5. I bet with the right setup after some more reasearch is done into what cams work well with a 3V it could make 400.

Alright...so I asked a very good source and he thought that it's certainly
possible to make 400hp to the wheels through a manual tranny, but it would be
difficult. Through an auto, he thinks it's flat out not going to happen. I tend to
agree.

Granted the FS motors are 4v and are over 400rwhp or right at it but a 3v can get to 400 w/ out the limitations of FS rules. Big cams, lots of timing and alot of compression. Not really street friendly but 400rwhp is 400rwhp. Combined that with a super light weight chassis and I think you can squeeze out a 10.9X pass around 122ish. -Mark

EDIT: just re-read your post. On a stock shortblock, I don't know if milling the heads that much would get 12-12.5:1 and keeping the stock pistons. Still learning the 3v stuff.
