Default I wanna go FAST!

Im serious thinking of building another 95 camaro but this time on spray. its would be a stock long block with a 228/235 .560/.560 109, Headers, 3'True Duals, SFCs, TCI 3200, ET Streets, CAI, 100 shot of nitrous, 30# Injectors, Walbro 255 and 4.10s What kinda times do you think is possible for this setup with a decent tune? How much juice can a stock short block hold?

We do more 1/8 mile racin round here and ive got a friend with a motor setup like you are sayn and he ran 7.40s on gas with 3.42s sprayin a 150.

as far as how much a stock bottom end can hold. stay under 150 if its fresh. make sure its got a good tune for it also. or stay safer and just run a 100 shot.

people have done big things on a stock shortblock. I would say the limit is a 150 but many have gone 175, 200. So its really up to you. I would say the majority would say a 150 or 175.

Have you thought about a dual stage? maybe a 100 off the line follow but another 100?

I think you can run low 11's with the juice. Maybe low low 11's or 10.90's but theres only one way to find out.

Mid to low 11's. It seems like most people I see are running 150 at the highest.
