Fair enough. Looking forward to October when we start getting some negative DA's. That and some drag radials I'll hopefully get close to 11.5 in the 1/4.

I went 13.1@114 (3200 da) full weight, stock heads. Doubt I can get a better trap speed unless I drop some lbs

#not my car. Its a member car on here that he sold awhile back but it was a nice setup.

HPE S cam (238/240 on 112lsa)
Patriot gold dual springs with titanium retainers
TSP 7.400 pushrods
Melling HV oil pump
LS2 timing chain
LS6 intake
Hooker ceramic coated long tubes
TSP (New version) ORY y-pipe with an DMH Electric cutout into a stock SLP Dual Dual catback 160 thermostat
SLP lid
42lb delphi injectors
Steel shift forks with bronze pads
3.91 gears
11.766 at 122.79 mph on 18 inch vette wheels. No weight reduction. Also car had a stealth speaker sub deal going on. Impressive in my book.

If you don't have the chrs1313 ram air already, that's good for 2+ mph and .-1.3 in really good DA. Talking from experience

Edit: anyone on here running the True duals is trapping noticeably higher than the guys running a Y pipe set up.

I'll have to look into that. I just have an slp lid that came on car when I bought it.

Mine is a y pipe set up btw, 3" exhaust and cutout before the axle.

Well what's your raceweight? What's the weather like? Sounds ok for a full weight car.

It is a full weight car. I ask cause of the high ET at 13.1 haha
It was a 2.1 60' and my car doesn't seem to run good on rolls with other cars with lower HP

2.1 60 is bad! I went 11.6 at 115 mph and 10.8 at 126 mph with a bigger cam. My car is light and more max effort. So with a 114 mph should get you high 11s you just have to 60 ft well. So sounds like it's making decent power.

119 with stock cam lol stock internal car no power adder, can run at least 113 mph in 3500 da 90 in the 1/8th and 95mph in the 1/8th, looking for at least 5 more mph if I put a cam in.

We picked up 7mph going from bolt-ons to cam-only and are also running a slick now which gives back about 1 or2.
So with the right cam and supporting mods I bet you can find about 8mph.

I'll have at least 2 more mph from doing full front suspension and front and rear drag brakes and lowering my iat's from what they were. Transmission is faceplated now so I might run a little quicker in the same form as I did the 119. The other trans took longer to shift and could not stay wot shifting.

Thanks for the info gives me hope for running close to 10.0x's cam only.
