It would run a little higher than T .
The 4 cylinder Mopars in comp are using the sprint car motors (a sawed in half longways V8). It is a pushrod motor that has nothing in common with the SRT4 blocks.
I've talked to the comp guys about using a motor like mine but they don't think they could get a car light enough. (146 cubes)

I talked to the guy with the opel at Indy, LAA, that is a cheaper way to go comp racing for sure. And Aragona in his GED has been .70 under with his.

Ask Alan Armstrong and Frankie how much "cheaper" it is to run their combos in Comp.
Maybe cheap compared to running a T/F car.
That L/LA car was Alan's,who by the way did all the R&D on the chassis,engine etc.They bought a winning combo to start.No reflection on him (Yediny) but if he had to start from scratch his costs would probably equal the GDP of some small third world countries.
