Its going to come down to what kind of 60ft you can cut. if you cut the 60ft I think the car can get, I think you can be in the 7.30's. you mph I figure being a stick should be pretty good. Its really going to come down to how well you can launch the car. I have an auto with less power than you, and I run low 7's, but I have a converter.

My calculator says 7.80's @ 97 mph. Don't be surprised if you run some 8's at first until you get some "seat time". Manuals take abit getting used to especially launching. I bought my 98 Firebird back in 2004, had a T56. It took 3 or 4 trips back to the track before I could get it to run the number that it should. The most important mod is the driver mod, especially when you are new to the car.

I already took that into consideration. My car has run. 6.9. With a converter z06 manifolds, drag pack. DoN't get me wrong, that's what I think the car can run. Not necessarily what you might run.
