trying to figure out where i need to be 60ft wise especially and if this 4000/2.5 converter and 4.10 and 26x255 m/t radials will even come close.
cars best 60ft was like 1.61-1.66 and it went a 7.40 1/8th old setup... i know we need about a 6.90 1/8th correct to get a 10.99...

MODS

-car has no cage yet, so its prolly around 3050-3100 raceweight... lots of metal cut out, no interior ect.. the car was a stripper to begin with

-232/234 cam stock heads/bottom end, rod bolts ect.... shift points are set at 6800... tuned for nitrous, may have to change this.

performabuilt lvl 2 fuddle 4000/2.5, tci flexplate, richmond 4.10's, cheap jegs or lakewood lca's, umi relo brackets, reinforced stock tq arm. overall the car hooked pretty well in the 1.60's but that was 300lbs heavier, i actually want to make a run at this with the stock tq arm and rearend then im switchin out.

car made around 350/370 unlocked on motor with the nitrous tune and a good bit of timing pulled, this was also before a few things were added though

oh well if it dont make it i have the nitrous i guess

Wow thats a light car.How much does the car weigh without you in it like 2900?

low 1.5x should do it. mine runs 1.45-1.47s and runs low 6.8x on motor but mine is a 3800lb tank.

You might be there, you'd need at least a low 1.5 and a 6.9/7.0 1/8th to get there. I'd guess the 1/8mph would have to be at least 97mph, most likely 98mph. Slip might look like 10.99@122 on a 1.50.

I agree at your weight and if you get a good 60ft(very high 1.4`s) and a 500ft or so D/A I think you aer there

i like psj's theory, 1.50/10.99@122... i think i can hit 98mph in the 1/8th and the car is really light so im hoping that it will offset how much power it lacks.

im also hoping that since its so light the 10 bolt will last for a 1.50 60ft

You should be able to do it. 1.52-1.49 or quicker 60ft. is what you will need to get there. I have cut numerous 1.45 60fts. on a 10 bolt but beware you will snap it like a twig if it even catches a glimpse of wheel hop.

will have some pics of the cars progress up tonight. just finished some buffing ect on the hood and bumper. cleaned it up, interior is still not done still pulling weight ect.

look at my sig im m6 tho but i cut a 1.49 and my 1/8 was a 7.071 @ 98 and the 1/4 was 10.998 @ 126.93
i think youll be in the 94 mph range in the 1/8 but thats just me.

i did that w/ a race weight of 3260 w/ me in the car. im now down to about 3150ish w/ me in the car im 140

hope that helps

i may not have enough power or suspension or stall for that matter

im starting to think 11.40s with this converter/setup.

may have to get it restalled, get some new headers a fast 90 a new tune a tq arm shocks and then have my 10's

well id prolly go 4400-4600 i do plan on still running a 150 shot when i swap fuel pumps, right now just a 75 tho.

what do you guys think about comp eng rear drag shocks or whatever... i want to get a tq arm but need to pay taxes, and taxes on the car, but could prolly have those shocks in time before i run it. any idea if they would help or not? prevent wheel hop? ive heard mixed things


so many different things done to the car since the last time i ran it, im actually a lil bit nervous. a whole lot has been done since the last time i ran the 1/4. id really like to hook up and go straight
