Default Lets Guess 1/4 Times with New Stuff

What do you guys think I will run with my current setup with new mods

I'm installing a built tranny with a Yank Extreme 3600, PRC 2.5, 5.3 Lt heads, New Comp OE Lifters. Could I hit 10's?

My 11.56 was with a slipping tranny and a stock stall and a 1.9X 60 ft in 80 deg weather.

If you spun to a 1.9X in 80* weather with the stock converter you will have a very difficult time getting the 60' down with a 3600 stall converter.

I don't see you making 10's until you can get a good 60'. That may require different air pressure, suspensions mods or most likely a better tire *and suspension mods*.

I agree. Work on the suspension next.

I also have a random tech TQ Arm on order. I'm looking to get some better Slicks. That should do it.

The TQ Arm is the only think I don't have on the suspension. I have Hotchkis Trailing arms and pan hard bar, BMR Sub Frames and Strut Bar, and Eibach sport line springs

Do you have lower control arms, or LCA relocation brackets? Sport line springs? I am not positive, but I don't think they will (or are intended to) help you launch at the track. If you get a GOOD launch with sticky tires and good weather it is possible. Now, since this sort of thing is always easier said than done, get out there asap and see what happens.

Should be a fun time though. Smoke Show
