That is a pretty impressive time, i don't care what anyone else might say. 120+ in the 1/4 is some serious power.

A buddy of mine is running the same Et's and mph in the 1/4 w/ 397 whp NA in an F-body camaro. He is a great driver w/ 1.6 to 1.8 60's.

If you cut your 60's down to 1.6 you should be in the low 11's.

If you have a Z06, then I really think your MPH should have been a good bit higher with that much RWHP and the light weight of the car... I would expect over 125mph easily.

Don't worry about the mph. If you get the 60' down in the low 1.6's you will run a bottom 11. Tire psi seems too low. I cut a 1.49 with 15 psi in mine. No spin at all, just the tires slipping on the rim.

Its not a bad time, with more traction I think you have 125mph in it.

The traction issues are hurting your mph.

Also the Z06 comes with 3.42s but better tranny gearing ratios than the stock gearbox. I would NOT bother changing the gears at all.

Good clutch and tire and you'll go low 11's at 124-125 easy

those are some nice numbers, work on that 60' and you'll see low 11'2 for sure.

Very Nice numbers but IMO the et and mph are alittle off from the hp you posted with the z06 being a pretty light weight car especially with what must have been a minus D.A. last night in NJ.

why run the drag radials that low? what type of DR are you running?


Good luck with the car

Something isn't right-with 413 RWHP in 85 degree heat I ran 122 with a 1.8 short. This is also a Z06. Also I don't powershift either, but with that kind of power u should be running 126-128 regardless of the gears. I know 3.42's are not the perfect gears but with the power and torque your car made u should still trapping much higher.

I believe the tire pressure i was running was way to low & my clutch is slipping pretty bad especially if i go over 5800rpm. im taking the car back to TTP getting a spec stage 3 clutch, hardened output shaft and 3.90's. then it should really rip

The MPH is really low (dyno numbers look good). Mine ran 121 with only headers and a vortex airbox on a stock shortblock. You should be trapping 125+.

Thanks. I always just assumed they had steeper gears. You know what they say about assumptions.

He needs the gears to keep in the powerband. Remember the z06 gearbox is geared differently(m12 is way different that the m6) like you said and with the stock 3.42's he is dropping way out of that HUGE cams powerband, therefor hes not reaching the maximum potential of his power.
