Well if he even has the vehicle and engine combo he's saying, then there is possibility of some high HP and Torque numbers for sure. If its built right than he should have no problem leaving you like you were stopped. But if it's like your thinking, and he doesn't have what he says he has, than I wouldn't worry about it. For all you know he's lying and it has a tired ass 318 small block with open headers...

Can you stroke a 440 to a 454? Because a 454 is a Chevy motor and I don't know of too many mopar guys running chevy stuff. Based on that he might be full of BS.
However, if he's telling the truth he'll probably smoke you like Stalker said.

Yea he is 20 n just got it. I'm thinking that is more then a pricy car. more then $30,000 right? its a 69 that "might have a supercharger". I'm thinking very pricy. way to pricy for a 20y/o. lol. I might still race him for shitsngiggles. I really dont care if i lose lol. i like to feel the rush. ofcourse winning would be better but owell try to have fun is what i say. that and i only have like 250hp or something like that. i need to get dyno'd but no money. if i did i would rather get more parts then dyno it lol

If true, the big block alone would beat ya most likely, and if it's supercharged you'll definately lose! LoL but yeah a '69 charger is a pricy car with any engine, let alone a supercharged big block. But yeah race him and see what he's all about. I have a friend that tries to tell me he's got a '70 maro with a big block and he wants to race me, but I've known this guy for a couple of years and never seen his maro!

Ask to see the car first, not necessarily under the hood but to see if the car exists. But it sounds like a kid running his mouth...

Like MNJARHEAD said. the 454 is a chevy engine. My cousin is a chevy guy n said its a chevy engine and said he is probably running his mouth like everyone else here said. O well I'll post back if he ever decides to show the car or what not. Great talk by the way. I like how i get told i would get smoked n then said the car is probably imaginary. lol. Like i said i race for fun. I love the rush. not addicted but its fun to let loose some times. special with college were you stress alot over stuff that shouldnt bother you but it still does.

Please, the kid is full of BS! He's was probably watching the fast and the fictitious last night and saw the black charger that was featured in it so decided to call you out with his imaginary car.

I'm sure you could punch a 440 to 454 cubes and beyond with no problems, but I guess it doesn't really matter if he doesn't even have the car...

would be hard to get to 454...besides my 5.0 i'm more or less a mopar guy a 440 punched 60 over would be 452 with stock rotating assembly. I would also think that a stroked 440 would end up being a LOT more cubes than 454, and seriously...I wouldn't be caught DEAD with a chevy motor in ANY of my cars, ford or chrysler. If he does indeed own such a car, slap him in the face for being a blasphemer!

Thats more or less what I meant bored and/or stroked. a 440 BB Chrysler could be making a lot of cubes with no problem...

Exactly! That kid's so full of BS it's probably dripping out his ears. The next time he wants to tell a fairy tale he should do some research first so he can make up a more believable story.
