i am getting close to taking my car to the track. i am trying to finish up my suspension now. my car will weigh around 3450 with me in it. i have a midsize cam and bolt-ons. (390ish hp) i am planning on having qa1 single adjust fronts, comp 3-way rears, midwest fab 9 with double adj torque arm and lower control arm and a midwest drag bar. i have a 4000 vig converter and 26in hoosier slicks and 3.90 gears.

I would hope better than that. With it all set up right it should be in the midish 1.4's being a auto and all. All day long.
Better track=even better!

I think 1.4-1.5s would be doable. So far I have been the best of 1.49 on 275/40/17 mt dr. I average 1.50-1.52s. Only suspension mods are qa1 with 300lb springs, boxed sfc, and non adj ph bar. Still stock rear shocks, stock rear sway bar, stock torque arm and lca's. Rear 15 inch drag radials are going on soon and 4.10s. Going to start working on the suspension.

Nice man! I am in the works of doing a very similar build to you. I will be ordering a fab9 rear end, doulbe adj tq arm, adj lca's, adj phb, sfc's, and possibly some strange single adj front shocks and springs. I'll probably order all that in the next couple days. You can see my current mods and times in my sig. That 60' was cut on stock suspension, stock wheels with 245 nitto's. So with the the mods, the 4000 stall, and 3:90 gear I think you will easily pull 1.4x-1.5s
Are you going to be spraying off the line? If so you might be able to get down to higher 1.3's, if you can get the car to hook. Deff keep us updated though if you go to the track soon, car looks awsome man!
