Question 1/4 and trap times

I got a 2000 ws6 with 110k in richmond va

Mods: slp lid/maf, pp tb, ls6 intake. lt, !cats, !egr,!air, hooker catback, 3.73 gears, 3200 stall, tx 228 114 with supports NO heads, stock supension/tires

I weight 110 and stock weight minus air pump and I have two 12s in rear.

Before cam best was 12.8 @109mph...spinning on nittos

dynoed with lid/maf/tb/intake/lt/!cats,egr/lm1 @ 335,336

After cam/stall/gears @ 376/350

Just for fun not really seeing what she had due to not having good tires... I ran 13.0 on street tires spinning horribly...2.2 in 60.... @ 109mph

Now I think I should be in low 12s ...not real sure thou??

Also what tire: size, brand, psi,... should I get??

Do I have to have suspension mods to reach low 12s...maybe even high 11s??

Get some LCA relocation brackets, a set of either MT or Hoosier 26" DRs & a good tune & you'll see low 12s i'm sure, maybe even high 11s.

BMR weld-ons, if its surging that ain't good, it could have a lean condition, have you ever checked FP or replaced the pump?

Get an EFI fuel pressure tester, there about 45.00, there will be a testing port along the fuel rail.

What will the LCA relocation brackets do for his car? Everyone tells me that they will just stop wheel hop...

Their suppose to increase traction too, by changing the lower control arm angle. I guess its just easier to notice their effect on wheel hop than traction.

They will not control nor stop wheel hop, i've learn this from experience, they will help traction though.

If you have the funds, yes you can get Adj. LCAs as well, then you can set pinion angle some, you'll be fine with the factory PHB. Just get the car to hook & you'll be flyin .

Shopping list:
1st. 26" MT or Hoosier DRs
LCA "weld-on" Relo brackets
Adj. LCAs (optional)
Free mod: Disconnect & drop the front sway bar.
