Default What would I run with this setup???

I will be doing a TH400 conversion soon with a 4400 stall...

My current mods are in the sig, so just add the TH400, stall, and possible a 9"

The car will be on a nitto for a while and I know there are going to go up in smoke...I figure maybe low 12's on a nitto and mid to high 11's on an ET street...I'm still running the SLP bilstein suspension, I will be doing hals sooner or later in the front...

I think with the setup I can run around 11.8's on an ET street and with hals in the front 11.6's or better...considering the rwhp and rwtq I will get from the 4400

What do you guys think?

I'd go with the 9" and ET Streets and save the money you'd spend on the tranny conversion... you'd hit your times too! <img src="gr_stretch.gif" border="0">

I really want to do the tranny, to rebuild my "little girl" t-56 would cost 1500 and to buy a brand new one would be $2900
