Default 12.74@108 in a 02 conv

This is in a stock conv ss with just a holley filter and hpp3 tuning on stock bfg tires cutting a 1.92 60 ft. Was wondering if any other convertables had same time or not.

Are you talking about the car in your signature? If so, how come you removed the holley filter and HPP3 tuning? Your sig. says you have headers only.

had to remove headers due to dealer wouldn't honor warranty on tranny so when warranty runs out there going back on also updated sig ....sorry

had a 4l65e installed over the winter car seems to be faster with newer tranny might have to buy a stall and put the headers back on and see if I can get into the 11's

Your times are AWESOME compared to my friend's 2001 WS6 convertible: 13.5@104.xx. She had lid, plugs, wires, y pipe, and Corsa exhaust.

Thanks for the replies guys I think the tranny is really helping out since last year times where only 12.94 up at MIR now with times with 12.74 I think i'll take some weight off and try for some 12.5's maybe some tires would help cause the summer heat is just around the corner. Also that was my fast times my average times where 12.80-12.82 so running the car cold helps.

02SSZ7D ...I see your sig says 11.72@115 in a vert was that stock internals if so what did you have done to it.

I'm going to have a st3500 Yank installed and some ET STREETS and some headers and a HPP3 and take out weight to make up for roll bar for the EASTERN FBODY shoot out at MIR on 4-3-04 and hoping for some 11's
