Default LE Heads/cam ET's first nite out!

Well I sold my Trickflow heads awhile back and went with Lloyds LE3 (stock castings) heads/cam setup. I also installed a Moser 12bolt, BMR torquearm (factory style adjustable) and a different converter. So I dynoed the car Thursday on a stingy Mustang dyno and ended up with 390rwhp and went out Friday nite to do some testing. The car is 3,450lbs, on 325/50/15 drag radials and had been parked for the last 6mos. so here is how it went. First pass was off the footbrake and I hit the rev limiter on the 1-2 shift:
1.50 60'
7.13@97mph
11.20@120mph
Second pass I left on the T-brake and the car hooked great but I hit the limiter again and short shifted 2-3.
1.48 60'
7.10@96.8mph
11.12@120mph
Last pass I put a 6,400 pill in the shift lite and let the car cool for awhile.
1.49 60' spun a little
7.02@97.6mph
11.009@121.8mph
I want to say thanks to Lloyd Elliott and Brett Bauer for hooking me up with an awesome heads/cam package that will run mid 10's once I get the converter swapped out and the tune a little closer. It felt awesome leaving with a 1.4 60' on motor and both front wheels in the air. Later Clint

Did you go with his le3 cam or is it different? Those are killer times. I know a guy that runs the same times with his lt1...ported heads, comp cam and 150 shot of juice so you are doing awesome. He is still on the stock 10 bolt some how. Even has the stock 3.23 gears. That has to be hurting him.

I saw you out at State Capitol. Your car looks good going down that track. A lil' cooler weather and it will be running 10's.

Thanks also goes out to Tim Herrington for helping me out with a tune and some tuning wisdom. I am ready to see that red Firebird at the track banging gears. Later Thanks guys.
