Just posting the data out there. Due to a number of circumstances that is my current setup lol. Makes a lot of torque. The same heads on my LS1/MS3 cam, same car, trapped 117-118.

But some of the difference here is the thread title says highest hp. That can be much different than acceleration.

Agreed.

Last time I weighed it it was 3320 without me. I'm 190. I don't have the current weight of the car but I did do some reduction previous to the day I ran that trap speed, so 3490 was my estimated race weight.

550whp should yield you way more mph than 127. Was there issues getting down the track? Super high da? Heavy *** clutch?

Lots of stuff comes into play when talking trap speed or acceleration.

I’ll have to check the DA, I was on the original trans which was hard shifting into 3rd and 4th. Clutch was a Monster Level 2 that was getting very hot. This setup was on an 85mm MAF also.

I’ll report back in a couple of weeks. Car is now MAFless, with a rebuilt T-56, and RXT clutch.

Thats a decent time. Get your 60ft down and she will pick up out the back door as well.

I was actually making the pulls. I questioned why the rpms are off. My limiter is set at 7000 and each run I ran it to the limiter.

I’m hoping to improve all around. It was my first time out on bias tires but the slicks were old. I have some new ones.
