So you went 9.91 with a 6.27 half track trapping 107 at half track. It's looking like that 6.38 pass might of been 10.0x I think it's going to take a little bit more to get into the 9's. Even then it will be squeaking in.
yea im shifting 2nd in the air with mine..that 1.30 60' is on the rears as well....cars still realitivly heavy too at 3300lbs.......i watched your video im hoping i can stall mine up that high with my new converter....if i can come out at 4000rpm or so its going to drop my 60's big time.......that pass i had my travel limiters short and my shocks tight trying to keep the front end down.....pass before that i stood it up and came down kinda hard and crushed a header tube....but yea thats hauling for your car man none the less......fast times for sure

That's Circle D's 230mm billet stall that seems to be a pretty hard hitter off the line and still efficient down track. I can stall it to 5000 if I want to, but over 3800-4000 doesn't seem to make it any faster. It still flashes 5800-5900 no matter what. Maybe a bit slower to flash.

I'm pretty sure when I start spraying the car I'm going to need some limiters. I'd even bet right now if I had limiters I could get even more out of my 60' and 330' by keeping it from scrubbing off speed when it comes down. I know all about trying to keep the front end down!

Thanks for the compliments to have a heavier car that's LT1 powered nonetheless in the 9's is fast too!
