Should have went larger on the converter.. Depends on the brand/STR as well.

I would guess around 12.4 1.7 short time. You might lose some on the mph, you might gain some.. Or it might stay the same. All depends on how efficient the converter is.

Street tires or drag radials ?? On drag radials ,youll probably drop @ .4 tenths . On street tires , you might lose some time due to traction .

You will be in the 12.4-12.6 range. I just installed a SS3600 in my car, been to the track once, three runs best run 12.5 108.5 with a 1.8 60ft Before the stall I had the same mods as you and also ran 12.8 at 109 2.0 60ft My best time I launched around 2000rpms. Best of Luck!

What kind / size drag radials? Also keep in mind weather conditions this time vs weather conditions on your previous best run. If weather conditions were stellar for your previous best runs but the temp and humidity are significantly higher this time around, you may not see a very big improvement. I only mention it because people so often get pissed when it happens, not realizing how much of an impact DA can have on their times.

That said, assuming similar DA, I'd guess 12.4-12.5 if you can hook.

Fall will usually net you the best air.

I wouldn't be able to wait though.

Eh...tell me about it. In Fallon at 4,000ft I trap 107mph, and in Sacrmento at sea level I trap 114mph!

To OP, I'd say consistent 12.4-12.5's.

I am also with lemons. I was 12.8 and put a 4000 vig in my car and so far in hot humid weather I went 12.4 with the trans smacking the rev limiter 2-3 shift. Once I get the shift points worked out and on a better night I'm thinking 12.2 for me. my 60fts are 1.66-1.67.

12.5 if you hook which you should. Maybe a 12.4 on a good run. Post up the results when you get the new times
