Did some research about this car 
anyway after I read everything the car had done, and the cost estimates I got from some people that dealt with it personally (its out of "Cajuns" shop down south.) I realized 2 things... number one this cat spent cubic ass loads of money on it, and number 2, the work is top shelf.
Just to give you a update, I dont know how bad, but the car has caught on fire recently. No word on if its a write off, or if its minor (minor on a 200k car  ) .
...as a side note... one morning I was reading the article in GMHTP, and almost shot frosted flakes out my nose when I got to the part how he wanted to be the first SSO car in the 6's! Yeah, you and the other million people standing behind you. Only thing he (Sanchez is the name) forgot to say, was to do that meant he would have to get past billy glidden; NOT!

I'm thinking more along the lines of ~1500.

He is/was putting down 2000hp+ it takes around 1300-1500 to run 8.0hs. Like I said earlier though, the car burned up. Dont know the extent of the damage.
The motor was built from nothing but the bad though, Donovon block, Pat Musi motor, F3R procharger head unit, back halved with monster huge 10.5W's riding the 4 link...
He is is/was running SSO (super street outlaw) which is extremely competitive. There is a guy from Kansas that comes down here and cleans up with a 3rd gen Camaro, monster big block with 3 stages of nitrous. He ran 7.47 @ 18x a couple weeks ago. Then you have Billy Glidden running 7.0hs with a small block and all the nitrous for sale that day, good thing about Billy is he wont show up unless the money/size of the event is right, so you dont have to sweat him much.

Then I guess the calculator I used was a bit off. I got 16XX HP if it weighed 3000. Oh well, badass nonetheless.
