Default What will I run?

I have an 02 camaro ss with a yank ss4000, ms4, pacesetter lt's, nitto dr’s, stock 3:23 gears, fully tuned, with bolt on’s including lid, p/p tb, lca’s, sfc’s, ect.

I am looking to go to the track sometime in the next few weeks…What do you think my ¼ should be at?

Thanks in advance for your input guys!

yes i know the 3:23's are really holding me back! im reluctant to put in 373's or 390's without swapping in a 12 bolt or 9" though...

I would guess anywhere from 11.5-12.5 depending on weather and track conditions. Too many variables... Keep us updated though.

Low 12's with that gearing. 373's would be fine in the 10 bolt.

no, if you hook that car, your 11's for sure. I have the 3600, with a smaller cam from TSP and im running a 12.0, and my car is still shortshifting. My 60 foot is 1.75, if you can get the car to hook and you dont go an 11 i would be extremly suprized, the 4000 stall is gunna let you haul ***. BTW id go 3.73 and ride it till it breaks (if you have the money) cuz with those and that verter your gunne be low 1.6's all day, and well well into the mid 11's

Pretty much what I was thinking. The ms4 is a pretty big cam, and with a stall and good tires I can see you in the 11s no problem.
