Default 12's finally!

12.999@107.37 2.044 60ft 8.445@86.43 1/8th
12.896@109.54 1.985 60ft 8.331@86.79 1/8th
12.796@109.54 1.947 60ft 8.267@87.18 1/8th
12.719@109.95 1.913 60ft 8.204@87.37 1/8th

Trans was slipping pretty bad 1-2 and was bouncing off of the limiter, so I had to shift around 6200 instead of 6500. Pegged 7000k a few times lol.. Stock converter is killing me... no traction issues at all last night, roll into it and go. My new 3000 stall should get me into the power band quicker as with 3.69's

Drag radials NT555R's and spring blocks. I'm looking to hit 1.7-1.8's next week with a little foot braking. Stock converter is really huring me. I would almost bog out of the hole when hooking real hard. The tires are street tires and I've been driving around with them on. Tire pressure was 22psi. I'll try 18psi next time and put a little water on them to help heat them up.

Stock trans minus shift kit. I'm not really sure what the dyno numbers are right now. I'm thinking I'm close to 350-360whp. I'm running pretty close to what the stage I Cartuning turbo kit puts down.

Kick *** Dave. I am sure you will be high 11's once you put the new tranny in. My second to third gear was a huge difference in take of with my new TEP tranny. I have the 3.29 gears with hardened input shaft (not that the input shaft makes a difference with performance). My tranny shifts a lot harder and really pushes when it shifts. I cannot wait to see what your car can do once you put the new tranny in.

What did your car come stock with for HP? My Monte had 303 stock.

Had to edit this one, it was second to third gear was a big difference.
