12.8 @ 117.5 w/ 245's title change please.
running CRAPPY *** 245 street tires and got a 2.39second 60'
i'm running the MS4 cam, stock heads, ASP pulley, QTP race headers, LMR custom true duals w/ ORX and borla XR-1's, p/p throttle body, ls6 intake, and lid w/ K&n filter
trapped a consistent 117 and made three passes getting better times every round....shifting at 6400.
fastest run was 12.8X
as soon as i get a rear end i'll throw the MT's on~!

I'm just guessing you should be in the 380-420 RWHP range and should be touching 12.0's. . .just guessing. . . Sounds like traction is an issue. . .ESPECIALLY with 2.39 60's

awsome trap speed! throw some m/t's on it and head to the track. your rearend should be ok if you go easy off the line. if you want to strengthen that 10-bolt a little, put a TA diff. cover on it. you can preload bearing the caps. good luck

I dont see why you woudl even attempt to run at the track with 245's out back, considering you have around 380rwhp and should be in the 11's. Buy some TIRES!!

i'm totally paranoid about blowing my engine.
i've heard mixed reviews about MS4 PTV contact(way after i installed mine) and havn't had a chance to pull the heads yet and flycut.
so in my own little world, i believe that not spinning as high puts lets stress on the crank bearings, rod bearings, etc and allows for less chance of detrimental interference...henceforth preserving my valves/pistons/pushrods
....really i just need to pull the freekin heads and quit whining!
