Nice passes. That day you would've been in the low 11's in the 1/4. My guess for the dyno is 460/420.

Take a look at my slip...looks pretty familiar huh! Your 1000 foot time is a little high though...what injectors are you running? If stock, you are likely running out of fuel so it's good that you're hitting the dyno, you might be scary lean. I'm 95% and I've got stock heads.



If you have any weight to lose, skinnies, passenger seat out, it'll help a lot. A tenth for sure. Also if you go out on a cooler day with the weight loss you'll get your high 10.

My run was -793 and not clear if you have skinnies/seat out (I'm guessing not), or how many passes you've made, but judging from your mods, I'll go with

490/440 (assuming you have bigger injectors)

Oh...and be careful dumping that clutch...I've got 433 passes on my OE clutch launching at 5-6k rpm, but I never dump it. Your rear, despite what you've done, will not like dumping. And your clutch will take some abuse, they are pretty strong.

Keep us posted!

I have 74lb inj. And yes its full weight with heavy wheels. And I just ordered the ported fast 102mm intake so that should help out the topend thanks for the insight

Running a 7.09 1/8th should be good for a 10 second slip or VERY close if you hold onto it the rest of the run.

I went 11.29 on a 7.29 and 7.31 1/8th

As for power, I don't know. 98mph isn't THAT fast in the 1/8th. My car went 98mph making ~390 through an unlocked converter. I would guess mid 400s rather than closer to 500.

I also consistently run 4 seconds and 30 mph in the second 660. I can very clearly and easily estimate my 1/4 time from my 1/8.

Well im going to the Dyno fri to see what its putting down. Then im gonna put the lethal ported 102mm fast on it, and without changing anything im gonna go back to the dyno next fri and see how much of a difference the intake alone makes.

Nice pass! I'd guess an 11.0x pass assuming you have 3.42 gears and are still making the 3/4 shift after the 1/8mi. I'm basing this off my results of 1.54, 4.58, 7.09@100.6 and 11.09@123.9

Yeah it seems like its starving up top and I know its not lean, its been tuned with a wideband. Do y'all think that the npp exhaust is restricting it? Cuz it does neck down to 2 1/2in and it goes thru the modified stock mufflers.

Anyone have any dealings with the mild to wild setup and if its restrictive or not?

I thought you were going 1000 ft to beat rollbar rules...is that track only 1000 ft? How come?

Nice runs by the way! 1.51 is no easy feat in a manual.
