Default What will she run in the 1/4 mile?

Alright 69 Camaro about 3,000 lbs. ls1-700r4-373 gears. Mods are headers,cold air,ls6 intake,cam,tune, made 377 hp on the dyno. My guess with traction and a good driver (not me) low 13's.

Thanks

what tires?

on a decent tire i'd be looking for mid 12s with no stall. best case mid-low 11s, but you'd need a big stall and strong 60'.

with that setup i'd say mid-12s. your tire will be severely limiting your ability to generate a decent et.

i had a bolt-on ls1 a4 4th gen camaro that went 12.7s on 245 goodyear gscs. i assume you will have the same problem i did with traction, but trap higher due to the lack of weight. the same car went 12.0s on a drag radial, 3700ish raceweight.
