I would agree with these guy's . Unless you are making a ton of power it's not going to be very fast at all. You are also going to put a severe amount of heat into the converter .

I'm glad someone asked this question. I just put the blower on my car and haven't changed rear end gears.  It's a 8 3/4 diff with 4.88 gears. Worked great with a mild 350 but I'm figuring it will be a bit much (understatement  8)) with the addition of the blower and alky.

AF150:
Start with about a 4.11.  Should probably keep RPMs under 7500 - 8000 till you learn more about
your combination.

Mine a Pontiac, so it is out there, 461 CID launch at 4500, rear is 3:70 tires are 31 tall run 8.250 at 157 in the quarter 11 pounds  of boost

Marc s:
I launch off of the brake at 6400 RPMs. From the videos I have, the front tires touch the ground around 200' out. My 60' times are range  between 1.02-1.06.
