Default First time out w/the 396, LE2/4 Setup

I finally made it out with the new setup. The setup is basically a Nutek 396 with LE2 heads and a custom grind with FAST EFI, ported intake, bla bla. The A/F was pretty spot on, but I'm sure I could gain a few ponies playing with the timing - the car was seeing 33-34* of timing. The car wasn't hooking for **** - the car being lowered isn't helping, and I'm sure I need some relocation brackets at this point. Anywho, here's the run:

60' 1.933 :yuck:
330' 5.153
1/8 7.909
1/8 MPH 91.007
1000' 10.132
1/4 12.122
MPH 117.312


DA was around 2600'. I was pretty pleased considering the traction issues in 1st and 2nd and the fact that it hasn't been on the dyno yet.

Your 60 Foot is Horrible for a 396 of that calliber. Get that in the 1.6 at least and your car will run mid 11's. Better the 60 the better the times (which you probably knew that already, lol)
How much does the car weigh, if I had to guess I would say around 3650-3700 with you in it considering how much I think the car makes hp and TQ wize and the MPH you trapped.
Seems like monster though, my brothers c6 with bolt-on's makes 407RWHP and he ran a 12.5 with a 2.1 60 at 115MPH, and that car should run high 11's

Have patients, my 396 ran a 12.4 3 the first time down the track less than happy I was! LOL! Anyway worked out some bugs, got more traction and seat time. Best N/A to date in the Fl heat was 11.68 @115. 60 ft was a 1.54 I think!
