That's a nice pass. The best 60 I got out of my stock converter was 1.51. I have a base C7 with 2.41 gears. I just had a Circle D converter put in but didn't get to make it to the track before they closed for the winter. Thinking about going ahead and do the RPM wavetrac diff and DSS axles so I don't have to worry about breaking stock stuff. I'm shooting for low 9s dunno if I have quite enough power to run 8s.

I know that the 60' sucks... I was rolling off the line on purpose trying not to break anything else since we had driven 12 hours to an open track for testing...
163 MPH in the 1/4 is easily 8.4x-8.5x
with the Converter and 15" kit and upgraded drive train components I fully expect the car to be deep in the 8's, but that wasn't good enough for my customer so we are pulling off the little YSI and Air to Air setup and putting on an F1X with A2W...
I'll be hitting the car with a 300 shot as well, so I'm hoping to be either really deep in the 8's, or maybe... just maybe, eek out a 7 second pass.
Guess time will tell.

Where's the record stand for documented cars either,
1. C7 and/or C7Z06 Stock bottom end / displacement using 18"-20" drag radial?
2. Any C7 and/or C7Z06 using 18"-20" drag radial?
browsing the current "Fast List" it looks to be in the 9.3 range but was hoping to get some better info if available.

I have a converged list that I have started on Facebook in a group called C7 Records and Achievements... I know it is not close to a complete listing but we are trying to get all the cars on it that we can...
I know of a few in the 8's and the one we built just went 9.08@163 without a converter in it... we expect it will be deep in the 8's the next time out now the we have added a converter.
If anyone wants to see this list on facebook that I did, it is visible here
