WHEELS UP! for my 2000 TA WS6

Nice, not bad at all. Now put a moser and set of heads on it and lets see if we can clear some 12 oz cans!

cam is 231/237 112lsa .595/.605

I also have full exhaust and FAST 90/90.... what sucks is that after i pull the tires she bogs, i need better gearing.. believe it or not this pic was a 2.0 60 foot, 12.0x @ 118.5

It can be done especially if you are already pulling the tires. I have been fighting the same battle as you. Tonight I pulled a 1.79 60ft with my 98 TA M6 with STOCK 98 perimeter bolt heads, a T-REX cam, and bolt ons, and went 11.67 @118.55. As you can see, you MPH is there its just making the rest of the combo work. I have 4.56 gears in my 9" with 28 " tall tires. I tach 2300 @ 80 on the interstate so don't be scared. Go for the gear, those cars with big cams love it
