    4.30's preferably. 4.10's minimum.
    Lots of gear fear around here.

    With an S trim Chris? I wouldn't do more than a 3.73 personally if it was my car since its a H/C/I combo with a vortec. With the trap speeds he's likely to see it'd be over 6200rpms easily going through the traps. If he doesn't have numbers I assume that it hasn't been tuned and thus may have the stock rev limiter.

    How many lbs of boost are you seeing now with the pulley setup you have? Knowing that will make a HP guess easier.

    I missed the s-trim part. Thought it was N/A. In that case 3.73's sound right.

    About 7 1/2 lbs. I am thinking it's running rich, the thing sucks up gas pretty bad.

    I have been looking around some other forums and I see most supercharged 306's are in the 12's. I want to be in the 11's, though. A small cube motor like this 306 would be hard pressed to get into the 11's N/A. I am not talking about some high compression, pop up piston, solid roller, carbed 306.

    You should definitely be able to get into the 11s w/ gears, traction and practice. You'll trap close to 120mph which is easily 11 sec. potential but ET depends on alot of factors.
    I'd suggest 3.55-3.73 gears depending on how you use the car and what tire.
    Any pics?

    true, but by FAR the exception and a race car set-up.
    If this guy has never been to the track, he should be happy w/ 12s IMO.

    That's really hard to believe there. Probably a 347 and claiming it's a 302. Or hitting it with a shot of laughing gas.

    No, it's true. Good combo with weight reduction, steep gears, traction and great driving.

    You dont need cubes to run pal. He proves it. I know him very well. No juice, straight na. Very well thought out combo and good driving. The bottom end bearing caps have never been cracked loose.
