The best bang for the buck is a 73-340 rated I believe at 242 hp. or a 74-360 rated at 265 in Superstock. You can claim either or without any trim change. Once you get into classes that have potential of running 9's you need a lot more safety equipment. ( cage, certified cage, transmission and flywheel shields. window net, grade 4 license which add to the yearly expense in some cases). I'm not a fan of a 8 3/4 if you trans brake. Specially a big block. You can run a worn out stocker small block in Superstock these days at this hp rating.

Best of luck,

Saying You can run a worn out stocker small block in Superstock these days at this hp rating. That means you already have light weight everything, 4-6 grand invested in the torque converter and transmission, custom headers and other stuff.
