Nobody can tell you what it will run, you can guess if youd like but that is all it would be. I have seen a few cars go quicker by lowering the shift point a couple hundred rpm but there is only one way to find out. You would also need to know the DA, etc.. to make a comparison or make one pass shifting regular then the next pass, lower the shift points to find out.

I finally made it to the track this past weekend and, well, too many variables came in to play to say. With the shortblock replacement, DA was over 2000 points higher than last time, and lower shift points , the best I could manage was an 11.85 @ 113.

It's really simple. Find out where your power peak is and have your shift points on your power peak and the result will be the best performance out of that setup until the power peak is changed.
