Seen a few cam only lsx s10. Run high tens. Even seen a 5.3 h/c s10 get in high tens. There were like 2700lbs. But they run power glides and 4,500-5,000 stall. Not sure on your combo

Well im running a stock bottom lq4 with arp bolts, ms3 cam, 241 heads, ls7 lifters, backed by a stalled 700r4. My guess is 11.8ish N/A. If it breaks into the 10's on the jug ill paint the truck and make it all pretty and **** lol.

Sweet. Has the right truck/motor combo to get tens, but stall/trans/gear combo Have to be right to get it there. Hope that 700r4 can Handel that power. if that kick down cable is off one little bit the trans is toast. If it doesn't last u going to th350 or a glide?

Yeah, I'm guessing 12s on street tires. 11s should be easy when I get a stall and DRs. Do streets grip better or worse on the track?

The trans is rated to 650 whp but if it gives out I'm swapping to a manual. I've had several 700r's in hot rods and never had a problem before. Only problem I think ill have it the truck breaking loose when it hits 2nd and 3rd at wot. My old blazer had a solid shift but this kit should hit much harder.

This thing was one of the fun-est rides ive ever had. It wasnt very fast but it would get out of the hole pretty good to have little street tires. Fusion FTW lol

My last question looked weird. Do street tires hook better, worse, or the same on the track compared to the street?

Depends on what tires they are. Some street tire are ok on the track but 90% are worse on the track compared to the street. Street is rough compared to the track so most grab the street better.

Andy's 360hp m6 on normal street tires. Spun all the way down the track and even barked 4th gear at finish line. On street none of those problems at all. Hell hooked better on half wet roads. M6 on street tires worthless at track. You should have around 50-70 more HP then him so will be even worse for u.

Street tires suck pretty much no matter where you are to me. Everytime i have ever ran with street tires all i do is get pissed. If they are better on the track it wont be by much wether you do a burnout or drive around the water. All you can do is go try
