Default I got AS heads and track results

Everyone has bitched about AS heads and track results so here are mine. Well this is the first time I have had a chance to get to the track. I have never run ET streets or launched on them. On my 4th and final run at the Bowling Green gathering I ran a 11.38 @ 120. This was with a full interior except for backseats. I left my AMP and sub in the car and didn't take anything off to reduce the weight. I ran my chrome Firehawk rims and tires up front and 16" chrome TA rims with ET Streets in the back. The weather was not the greatest because when we checked before we left the humidity was 95 to 100% and the temp was in the upper 70’s. I didn't get a chance to weigh the car but I will try to in a few days. I on cut a 1.7 60' but with some practice I will get better at launching. Can’t wait for some better weather and the car to be race ready. Its hard to do that when you drive over 300 miles and don’t trailer it.

I just posted it here because this is where I see a lot of people asking. A mod can move it if they want. Sorry.

Damn, that's pretty nice. Don't really even need to strip the car. How about just getting some 15" slicks and skinnies, HAL's, front sway bar off, and better weather might get you there.

I thought the weather at the gathering was great. It hasn't been that nice here in BG at the track in a long time. Track prep was good too!!!!!

Great Times regardless of WEATHER !! Especially for a street combo. If you dropped the 60 ft to a 1.5X and put skinnies and maby even dropped some weight I wonder just how fast you would be with those AS heads.Oh thats right I forgot AS heads are just good for dyno #`s and dont run at the track my bad. Keep us up to date on future times when the weather is really good .

Nice times for the absolute heads. If you don't mind, what did you pay for the heads and what was the compression ratio. Email if you want. Amazing for a street setup. Cheers....

I paid $1200 but I had the springs and the heads already. Mods and stuff are in the link in first post.
