If the A/F is right and the timing is right, it probably would make it. Stock bottom ends will take a lot, they're just not forgiving. Little detonation at that power level = cracked block, etc.

I had a similar hail marry last trip to the track with my old car. Amost wrecked it, but had a lot of fun. Motor came out OK and I ended up selling it complete to a friend who ended up splitting the block with a 250 shot (I only ran 150 except for that last time at the track)

Hey, everyone else is trying to get in the 10's on a stock longblock so maybe you should too.

Might as well have some fun with it while you wait for the new combo.

Do you own a Torch Red FRC and tremble every time you drive under I75 on Hwy 60 and look in your rearview mirror? If so you are suffering from what is known as Cobraphobia.
