it depends. i run 9.9 with my motor tune up but with a little tweeking, tuning, and converter ect im sure it would run faster.
my 346 would run 10.8-11.2 on motor with a nitrous tune up.

I've gone 10.20's on motor but did not spend alot of time trying to get the best time out of the setup.Car is a little on the fat side for a horsepower tuneup.

I only ran 1/8 mile passes on motor.......With the nitrous converter, gas, and plugs. (I uped the timing to 29 degrees) The car went 6.32@111 with a 1.49 60ft.

Never ran a motor pass . But I would guess we would be in the 9.60 range.

10.4 3 years ago. never ran it on the motor after that. plenty of dyno runs but motor runs at the track are not fun in a 30" tire 355 gear nitrous car. LOL
