High 9s around 140 is a good bet.

Well that setup is really close to whats in my car right now except I am running a bigger solid roller, swapping to 3.73's and running the stock intake. I plan on going to the track this weekend with a few changes to make some N/A passes and maybe if everything goes right make a couple n2o runs. My car runs 10's no sweat on motor so I am expecting 9.50's on a 200shot but I am starting with the smaller jets to get everything lined out. I will have results eith er this weekend or next month. I'll post results once I get back from the track. Later Clint
