i have a 95 trans am with a moroso cold air, bbk pulley, lt4 knock module, flowmaster muffler, 160 thermostat, and its a a4 with 2.73 gears and i went 14.1 in the quarter banging the rev limiter a couple in 3rd, with a 3500 stall, shift kit, and tranny cooler, do yall think i would be in the mid 13s.

How were you banging the rev limiter in 3rd with 2.73's in the 1/4? With 4.10's and a 3500 stall, Im going through the traps at 111 mph and 6300rpm in 3rd. At 5700 rpm with the 2.73's, your speed would be close to 160mph, lol.

95transamguy

my bad, going into 3rd is what i meant.

Ahhhh, ok. That makes more sense. What mods have you done since the 14.1.....the stall, shiftkit and trans cooler? What kind of trap speed were you running with the 14.1? I personally think that the 3500 is too much stall for a car with the mods that you have. If you plan on modding it more in the future and are just getting the big stall for then, its ok but if you plan on staying at the level youre at for a while, I think its too much. You should be close to some mid 13's with all that stuff but the stock exhaust manifolds and 2.73's arent gonna help you at all.

wow state you either trap really ******* early in 3rd or you need to get some stuff lookd at.

95transamguy

my trap speed was 98mph, and yes i do planning on doing a small head cam package and midlenth headers, but before that it will be getting a 12 bolt with 3.73s. i just want a quick street car that will go to the track every now and then, and also it has to stay emissions legal. and i havent done anything since the 14.1, tranny completly went out shortly after. and u mean with the stock manifolds and 2.73 gear i wont see now gain at all??

you'll see a nice gain by adding the converter regardless, but you will need some nice sticky drag radials to see them. I think mid 13's would definately be attainable with some drag radials, but if your hitting the rev limiter than something isn't right.

I'm at 13.88 with just intake and catback not to mention oooooooold plugs with little spark left so you should be right in that area with the mods you have.

95transamguy

shortly after hitting the rev limiter all of second gear went out so it is now in the shop getting that fixed plus the shift kit and stall and cooler so it shouldnt do that now and if it does right back to the shop it goes with them fixing it for free. i love warrantys.

A TCI 3500 stall with a 2.5 STR.

The LT1 That Could

the converter should give u about .4. Sticky tires are gonna be a necessity however, and then you could see about .5-.6 from it.

95transamguy

sweet so i should be in the 13s already if i didnt hit the rev limiter so i should be at 13.4-13.5. before on my street tires i wouldnt spin at all on the track and very little on the street and that was with 245-50-16 kumho asx's my 60foot before was a 2.099

did u already have the converter in b4 the tranny rebuild??

With the stall converter, traction will be a problem.

Traction won't be a problem if he is light on it. At the track, yes it will be a problem. You can expect a 3200-3500 stall to knock you off .5-.7 off your e/t's, and with some sticky tires and some gears, expect at the most a full second.

I run a 13.4@103.57 with BFG KDWS which don't hook good, on a non prepped track. With mild bolt ons, and I have an A4.

you should see mid 13's easy with those mods, with a good tire.

95transamguy
