What would it cost to build a 8.50 Procharged 3v?
You'll need ~1000rwhp to go that fast so the relevant question is how much would it cost to build an engine, drivetrain, and chassis to handle 1000rwhp? Your best route there would be a twin turbo all forged 5.0L stroker.
Cost? Let's say 10 grand for the engine, 10 grand for the twin turbo & fuel systems, 10 grand for the drivetrain, 10 grand for brakes/suspension/chassis upgrades, and 10 grand for other miscellaneous stuff, so 50 grand wouldn't be wide of the mark.

Don't waste your time with a Procharger on a 3v, tried that, didn't work so well, turbo is the only way to go if you want to run mid 8s, setup is considerably easier and cheaper
