I put on some et streets last night, and my et went up .1. My thinking was that my stock car had too much tire on it to push it well. My 60' time went down from 2.3 to 2.0, however

For a stock car, yes, et streets are a tad overkill, but spend a couple grand on some engine parts and then they will seem like enough. But you will probably destroy the 10 bolt at the same time

I would do some other mods first to compliment those ET streets. Free mods if you haven't done any yet, some exhaust mods as well. Not sure where you wanna be regarding bolt ons. Good luck with it.

Yeah as soon as my backordered ory from pacesetter comes in, I'm strappin on headers, 4000 tc, !cats, !egr, !air, 3.73s, g5x3 cam and package, and tuning. Gonna get a 12 bolt asap.

I told you that would happen, but you'll be happy once the power mods are done.

Too much tire for a stock clutch/rear? Yes. Too much tire? Probably not unless they are like 27 or 28".

I'd throw a 12 bolt with 4.10's and a nice grabby clutch.. drop it from 4k.. 5k.. just whichever works best.

If your going to be running on the stock rear, BFG Drag Radials are as hard as I'd want to hook.

Peace,

that doesnt make sense though. if you already had a 3 tenth advantage on the sixty foot you should drop et of around 4.5 to 5tenths in the quarter mile. are the two et's you are comparing from the same night? if anything the tire slowing the car up should show on the sixty foot, not the big end. you will lose a little MPH from the car not spinning though.

If the car is bogging because of the tires, it will slow the car down.

i agree. i would think if its bogging, his sixty foot should be worse, not 3 tenths better. thats why i thought it could be weather on a different day or the car being hotter, something along that line.

ZaneO

Well, I was assuming more that he was bogging on shifts and not necessarily from the 60'...who knows.

Could just be too much rotating mass at speed.
