Default 3.42s to 4.30s WOW!!!

Well went out on open road after around 80 miles ofshort trip slow speed break in miles and got on it and all i can say is WOW these gears really woke up my car big time! The cam when you got it from TSP they said you will need 4.10 gears for the cams best results and with the new 4.30s yup they were right I was shock that how fast it got to 120mph. Ive been a best of 11.3@120b4 i hope i can pull off a 10.99

11.30s at 120 cam only. Was that on a 100 shot? I think most can't/don't run 10s cam only.

Actually this sparked my curiosity. So I looked at the fastest cam only list for an F-body. Number 20 is in the low 10.9 range. I would say running 10.9 cam only is extremely uncommon.

what are you shifting at with the 4.30's?

what's the highest you can trap at the top of 4th gear?

28" tire i presume?

132mph trap should equal a 10.4x e.t. easy.
need to get the entire pass in the power curve with traction.

I'm thinking of going with 4.10s with my s60, but worried it won't be enough gear down the road especially with just 26" tires.

What street tires do you have that are 26.6" diameter?
