Default TEA 1.5 guys.. whatcha running???

just wondering who's run the quickest with the stock bottom end and the TEA 1.5 heads these days on here(NA)?? The smaller the cam the better also..

a fellow efa member(larry01z28) just went 11.05@121 on a 1.50 60ft with the 1.5 heads and 224/224 112 cam. DA was +1200

his last pass was a 1.49 and shoulda been 10.9's but he nailed the limiter on the 1/2 shift since the launch sorta made him paniac LMAO haahhahha
But not to shabby for a lil baby 224 cam

so i just wanna see how goo the tea guys are running NA on here

I ran 11.46@118.8 with a 1.61 (peg leg rear) , no tuning is southeast Texas where you can see the moisture in the air. Got it tuned and it made power in sig.(locked) Im waiting for the good air to come back. Im doing a PT4200, adj.TA, sway, and relocation brackets over the summer so tens are coming for sure. 1.5s are the ****.

raceweight was 3100+- or so... yes he has a light car though, but it takes some cash to get light. More than I have LOL.

btw, i meant th400 and not the 350 also

J2K: thats the same as me.. i went out and the rear sounded like crap(one wheel wonders) and only saw 1.66 60's and 11.50@119 in mine in the +1500 to +2000 DA

i just got the new rear in today and man its nice to have a QUIET 10BOLT lmao!!

Im gonna wait till fall for some better air and shoot for some 11.0-2's hopefully. If my rear and trans holds up lol

i was just wondering who the fastest 1.5 car was espically with a 224 cam? I dont think many run the small 224 cams anymore LOL

thanks everyone... Stu, im coming for you this fall buddie

We had a full weight 02 WS6 with our 1.5 heads and a version of the X1 cam with a 6 speed. This car on a street radial went 12.0@122 with a 2.1 60'. This car made 436 rwhp with the 10 bolt and made 412 rwhp through the 12 bolt. Still hitting the rev limiter trying to guess where to shift. This was in the heat. DA was around 2250ft.

01z.. dont even LMAO

he dynoed 435hp through the M6 trans and 12bolt with the heads/cam.. dunno what he will dyno with the new trans. He doesnt care about dyno's anyway so

correction on raceweight also.. 3280 which isnt that light. The car was weighing in at 3040 without anything in it so add the driver and 3/4ths tank of gas

Brain, ya'll should remember larry ... i hope he can get ya'll some 10's in better weather
