Should be able to do mid 12s possibly low 12s. high 11s depending on alititude.
Buddies 94z with mac headers, cold air, pulley, 3.23 gear no stall, mt drag radials stock tb intake cam and heads does 13.4 at 101 or 2 think it was. He is 120 pound driver but track is like 1600 feet above sea level.

He has vig 2800 to install this season and cutout maybe getting a 52 tb and ls1 driveshaft also. We figure he should hit high 12s with that stuff on there.
Cam and heads would think mid 12s for sure maybe low 12s on the right density air day.

I am hoping to get mid 12s from my heavy 96z vert with additon of mac headers, comp 305 cam and some afr 180 heads,and cutout and ls1 or lighter driveshaft. Mid 11s on spray.

Oh my 96z already has 52 bbk tb, cold air, 2800 vig.magnaflow catback,tuning,underdrive.Its best has been a 14.2 at 96 but for sure have some problems with current spark plugs. Waiting to install new headers before doing the plugs. not much fun doing plugs in lt1 cars.Ran the 14.2 on et street radials but with only a weak 2.0 60ft.

Where are you located? Altitude and density air can make a big difference. Make sure you heat up those tires...Buddy could get better times but don't even heat them up.

I'm thinking mid bottom 12s. That is a small *** stall though. I'd be fully confident in 11 second potential if it had at least a 3600.

They had to cancel the races due to rain! I was in the waterbox about to do my burnout and they called the races! Guess it will have to wait until next weekend!
