427 Solid roller pass 1st time out ran a 6.94 @ 99 with a 1.517 60 ft.
Car had 3/4 full gas tank and in full street trim except some wore out drag radials. Spun all thru 1st with a launch at 5k and trying to shift to 4th, wasn't sure if the rpm would make it. And this is on a lowered car with factory shocks and little to no squat.
This was my first time at an 1/8 mile track. Any guesses as to what it should run in the 1/4?? Thanks guys.

Good runs....looks like a 10.9@127-128. My SR 396 LT1 ran the exact same 1/8 times and that is what it ended up running in the 1/4. My 6spd ended up running a little more mph on the backhalf of the 1/4 than the normal (1/8 mile mph x 1.27 conversion). I would assume yours would probably do the same.

hey Busa, ive been wondering if you have been to the track yet. congrats on your numbers, but there is alot more in that car. I just got my TFS 235 heads in for my motor and it will be going to ZMax as well after i get everything back together. That track is bad ***! Anyway get you some good tires and turn that bitch loose, lol. good luck Charles

Thanks, that is what everyone else is thinking this car will run as well. I was hoping that on a perfect day with a good driver to just eek out a 9 pass on a motor car but I am extremely happy with the results. Thanks again guys.
A Lot faster then that pass for sure. As a reference as to what 592rwhp solid roller 408 traps with a Super Victor intake...108 mph n the 1/8 with a loose 5200 stall, t400, and 3.27 gears in the 9" rear with 275/60/15 Drag radials. The car is 3600 lbs with driver.
I trapped 105mph and ran a 6.55 first run out, off the footbrake.
Then again, my car and the one above were ran in TX weather/altitude.
My car is probably 3,800lbs or so with me in it.
03 BUSA, I'd definitely say that with a little more seat time and fine tuning you'll probably see some lower 10s@130-132.....maybe even a little more, just as others have already said. That's a great combo you have and it will only go faster
