Yep best bet is to run it and report back. Without knowing your whole setup its should run good as long as you don't wheel hop with that 10bolt lol

Transbrake and a 10 bolt = No Time
If it doesn't break, I'd say 7.0

If you only run a 7.5 with all that you need to sale and take up knitting.

It should be well into the 6's in the 1/8

LOL true. With everything dialed in and a decent rear you should have no problem getting in the 6's/10's 1/4 mile.

Yup....it would live in the 1.7x 60 range. When i would try for more it would break a axle.

Auto's should live in the 1.6~ range with out much problem.

^^Agree. I've been numerous 1.5x on mine. Footbraking loads everything up (which I think makes em live).
Footbrake it and see what she does.
