MODS............whats next?? need suggestions
Ok guys....
current mods of note:
Power Effects cat-back
3.73 Gears (Dana 36)
Vigilante 2600 Torque Converter
K&N Filter/cut lid
throttle body bypass
Made 6 runs....
60' 1/8 mile ET MPH
1.85 8.54 13.40 101.109 (powerbrake)
1.82 8.50 13.35 101.375 (stabbed the throttle)
Both of the above runs were with BFG drag radials @ 26 psi in the right lane
1.82 8.53 13.39 100.91 (powerBraked)
1.85 8.53 13.38 101.34 (stabbed the throttle)
Both runs were made @ 23 psi (down 3 psi)..in the right lane
1.81 8.50 13.36 101.67 (stabbed throttle)
1.82 8.55 13.44 100.28
Ok.. consistancy is there..track was slow for EVERYBODY!
My question.... WHATS NEXT.
Headers??
Head/intake work..???
Im looking for ET improvement without going INSIDE the motor.
Best BANG for the BUCK??
I truly believe another 10th or 2 can come off on a good track. Runs were made WITH spare tire..less than 1/2 tank gas (no additives)..and a fat man driving!! Cheapest MOD is to go on a Diet, but lets NOT discuss that at this time.
include prices of mods if possible plz

Without going into the motor...send the Vigilante in to get it upgraded to a 3000 stall. ;)
Heads/cam work is going into the motor, but that is where your next step would be logically, best bang for the buck.
You could try removing the front sway bar and putting some drag shocks on it.

Re: MODS............whats next?? need suggestions (Phil-tha-Rush)
Looking at your mods you are headers, an MSD 6AL ignition, and gasket matching the intake to the heads away from what I had in my IROC back when I was running 12.87 - 12.91 @ 102.5-103+ MPH. Then, I bolted on a Super-Ram and low 12's @ 110-111 mph. I also had put a ZZ3 cam in my car, but I imagine your factory cam in a '95 is better than 0.203 @ 0.050 int. and 0.221 @ 0.050 exh. durations and 0.474 int. and 0.503 exh. lifts.
Good Luck!
