Is my setup 10 second worthy?
My car is a 1988 trans am GTA. It has a race weight of 3440 (with me in it).
Here is the mod list...
-2002 ls1 from a WS6 Trans am
-2002 Gas tank from a WS6 Trans am
-2002 Radiator from a WS6 Trans am
-Ported and Polished Throttle body
-MSD Spark plug wires
-NGK iradium spark plugs
-LS6 Intake manifold
-Hawks 1 3/4" Stainless steel Long tube headers with 3" collectors
-25% Underdrive pulley
-K&N Air intake
-SLP Loudmouth exhaust
-Cats removed
-Air system removed
-Air conditioning removed
-Aluminum Driveshaft From a 2002 WS6 Trans am
-T56 (6speed) Transmission From a 2002 WS6 Trans am
-LS7 Clutch, pressure plate, and Flywheel
-Ws6store short shifter shaft
-Hurst aftermarket shifter
-Skip **** eliminator
-Drill mod performed
-Ford 9" Rearend with 4.11 gear ratio and a Detroit locker
-Drews Crossmember
-Tubular Lower control arms
-Bmr Strut tower brace
-Hellwig front sway bar
-Edelbrock torque arm
-Edelbrock panhard bar
-Weld in subframe connectors
-Eibach 1" Lowering springs
-KYB shocks
-KYB Struts
-Factory Rear WS6 sway bar
-Wonder bar from an Iroc Camaro
-Slp Motor mounts
Right now with those mods it probably makes around 350 RWHP, it traps a 112mph right now.
this winter my project is installing a radix magnacharger mp112 (innercooled). ill be upgrading the injectors to 60#'s. Ill be swapping in an ls6 cam. The pulley will be a 2.9. I should be making around 500 hp.
are there anythings I should change? I was thinking about ditching the 1" loweing springs and putting the stock ones back on. Ill be getting rid of my UD pulley, strut tower brace (wont fit).

+1. At your weight 10's are simply a traction issue. Aim for 1.6 60' times and you should be golden. That, however, is easier said than done: your setup doesn't hook very well based on your video: and it should hook hard with what you've got. Don't waste your time, just take it to a good shop that has experience in the third gen area.
