Should be 11's if you can hook it, but looking at your mods I think you need suspension work, and of course, gears.

Word. EFA knows the business. All about hooking for the ET you want. Those highway gears are going to kill you with that stall in the quotah mile. Believe me, my 3600 is strugglin' on these 3.23's.

If it doesn't rain this Sunday I'll let you know how tenths I drop switching from 2.73s to 3.42s. You CAN run 11s with 2.73s but yeah they are hard on the trans

Good choice in gears. My favorite gear is the 3.73 hands down, but 3.42's are next on my list! I personally like a gear that doesn't sacrafice your first gear in a DD.

3:73 is perfect in the 1/4 for 26" tires. You'll be at the top of 3rd gear, 4:10's are revving pretty high in the traps. I run 3:73, 1BAD98LS1 ran 4:10 and did just as well.
