What are the torque/hp limits of an 8.2? I have to imagine they were close to the limit with the stock 400 application since they stepped up to a 12 bolt with the 455s in '70.
Wondering what the likelihood is of my rear end (3.55 4-pinion Nodular) surviving a launch on street tires vs. drag radials with 450ft/lbs of torque at the rear wheels? Trying to decide if I should just bite the bullet and replace it before I go beating on it.
