How much faster would an automatic be?
Right now my heads/cam SBE T56 car is going 10.90s @ close to 126 in 2000 feet and cuts 1.51 60s. I know they are alot more to it than just saying it'll go x amount faster with an auto. But assuming a properly set up 4l80e swap how much faster could the car go? I'd realistically probably never ditch the stick but I'm just curious.

Not making a tremendous amount of power only going 126, but that MPH should be good for at least a 10.30. A good bit of his poor et versus MPH in his 60'. At least two tenths right there. IMHO, the T 400 doesn't have enough low gear for his power level. A good T200 & ATI converter would wake it up.

I missed this from back then. The car cut a 1.51 on the 10.92 at 126 but also went a 10.95 on a 1.59. I assume I short shifted. Trap speed also dropped 3/4 of a mph it only trapped 125.3 or so on the 10.92 pass. And I've never weighed it but I was still running the stock k member and it had a 9". Did have hvac deleted and no back seats. Guessing 3300 without me.
