rest of suspension? Tire/gear combo?

that power level and curb weight with everything setup right would be mid 9's no problem.

LMAO!! We shall see

Chris, lets say gears are 3:73, and tires 28x12 ET Streets, or even 28x10 Drags. Adjustable TQ arm, air bags, 1LE sway bar in the back. Hals.

Great minds think alike! I was going to say a bus length or two back. This is going to be an awesome summer!!

750rwhp or crank hp?

750rwhp with nitrous = 450rwhp + 300 shot = low 9's I'll say 9.30 or so if you can hook it and have enough fuel.

Maybe this year we will actually be able to line up like we planned last year. On a large shot of nitrous you might want to invest in a progressive controller. Its easier on parts and can actually gain you little bit of time if you play with it enough depending on how your car will react to the large shot. 9's shouldnt be a problem if you hook it.

Wont be using a controler when I spray you. I'll shoot the bitch with a 300 shot right out of the hole. If that dont work, on the next run, I'll give it a 400

I might run a controler on the street though.

Matt, let's try to make some runs at CamaroZ28 Nationals. I might have the car together by then. Convertor just came in today, tranny should be ready by the first of the week. After I get all things together & dialed in, then I'll start on the nitrous. See ya..

I saw upper 9.3's with a GREAT 60' on the T-Brake!! Is this car part of Stenod Racing?

Ha ha. The car ran 10.68 with a 100 shot. I'm guessing that the ability to spray through the shifts with a 400T, and the pickup of 200 additional HP should net me more than a 4 tenths pickup. But you may be right. Time will tell.

I am in no way associated with "Stenod Racing"!! They are a shaddy group of guys, all of them!
