Default any gains going from 3:73's to 4:30's

Right now Im running about 11.8-9 @ 118+ with a 1.77 60' I have a 7,000 limiter so I should be fine through the traps. just wandering what it could do
to my ET and trap speed.

2000 Z 6spd, moser 12 bolt, grotts, T1, Welds w/skinnies, and E/T streets, and all
the other bolt ons.

Brian, the guy I was selling my 4.30's fell through and I have not felt like posting them for sale again yet due to laziness. I will bring them to the track Sunday if you are interested in them I still owe you a few bucks so give me $50.00 and we will be even <img border="0" title="" alt="[Wink]" src="gr_images/icons/wink.gif" />

You will love the 4:30s! Just make sure you get atleast a 26" ET Drag because you will need them. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="gr_grin.gif" />

My car went 11.50@121.6x on a 1.70 60' last winter with the 4:30s and the TR224 114.

Well I'm going from 4.10's to 4.30's, I expect about a .1 reduction in ET, for you maybe .15-.20 depending on traction, one suggestion though, if you go with the 4.30's you may want to upgrade to a full slick (i.e Et Drag, Hoosier) with tubes and rim screws. It won't affect your mph at all or very little, it'll just improve your 60's and your ET.
