In the engine bay sits a supercharged Chevy small-block V8 built by Williams Bros Racing covered by a custom cowl hood. ShiftLightTV reports the motor produces 1,200+ hp and 1,110 lb-ft of torque. The drivetrain uses a Powerglide two-speed automatic transmission and 9-inch rear end. Watch the team compete at Santa Pod Raceway and go 9.78 sec at 157.4 mph.
