Default Outgrew the BFG's 12.11@120.07

I ran the new setup last night at Atco & figured out a couple of things. I only got one halfway decent run in before the clutch got hot.
Once the clutch got hot I couldn't get it into 3rd gear when stomping on it. I was on BFG dr's & a worn out Zo6 clutch. Here are a couple of runs;
60' 1.878-no traction
330' 5.230
1/8 7.927
mph 91.50
990' 10.151
1/4 12.110
mph 120.07

run two missed 3rd hot clutch
60' 1.644
330' 4.904
1/8 7.969
mph 80.29
990' 10.409
1/4 12.496
mph 113.73

I'll get the setup worked out soon with some ET Streets & spec III clutch. What do you guys think, Fred

You were 3 tenths faster on that second run at the 330',easy 11.7x.
Get a clutch and tire and it will run 11s all day.

I get the impression that alot of people here like to keep their setups a secret for various reasons

I just like to go fast, my setup consists the following for HP mods;
LS6 intake, ported/polished stock valve heads, 228/228 112 .571/.571 cam, ASP pulley, LS1 Edit, Kooks stepped LT's 1 3/4 to 1 7/8, 30lb svo injectors, SSRA, SLP air lid, K/N filter, Granatelli Maf, ported stock TB & 3" cutout.

Those items are what makes the power & 120 MPH trap speeds.
