12.5 on a 2k launch. Obvisouly has 11's in it. Had to go easy on 10 bolt bc I was 90 miles away. Once I get a rear should see mid 11s easily. I'm going with stock 243s soon and should pick up 15 to 20 at the wheels. If your on a budget pick up stock 243s

Ok keep them coming guys. Im running 12.0's now wanting to add a cam or nitrous. Im sure i can pull off a 10 second passes with the gas but like to have the power all the time and the sound of the cam to boot. Ik now im probably not goinng to get a 10 scond pass witha cam but wondering how cloase with 853 and cam only i can get. I still have gears, ram air to do as far as bolt on's.
this is a good article. haider saba (fantaz28) on here was featured in gm-hightech awhile back ran 10.90's using stock 853 heads but swapped out stock valves with manley valves and patriot gold springs and ran a big cam. he did though have a th400 and a 12 bolt but nothing too radical motor wise. good luck.

I thought the 799 was the truck head? I was under the impression it had the same intake runner design but was a bigger chamber. Is that incorrect?
