Default ET estimate on turbo 5.3 foxbody
Looking to see if anyone has run this combo or can estimate what it should do.

foxbody, 5.3 LT style, 80mm turbo, megasquirt, e85, truck manifolds, 160lb injectors, boost leash, 10.5 slicks, th400.


Thanks!

with the right suspension and enough boost, low 9's - high 8's I'm guessing.

boost dependent on times. 5.3 on 10 lbs we saw 700hp, very mild. I would think solid 9's if you hook

Is this the correct 700r4 flex plate for LQ9 swap?
