The elusive 12's
Well, went to ATCO for the last time before I add the Vigilante, shift kit and super charger. I could not get a 12.99. My best was 13.003. I also ran 13.02, 13.06. All 3 at 106.8-107.2 mph. 60ft ranged from 1.86-1.92.
I had the ft tires up to 50 pds, no spare and 1/4 tank of gas. Drag radials set to 11 pounds. Any more led to spinning. 3 stinkin thousandths of a second.

Re: The elusive 12's
So you're in the 13s with a supercharger? Did I read this right? Even your trap is incredibly low. If you have a blower and I read your sig right, you need bigger injectors and a custom tune instead of that HyperCrap.
Re: The elusive 12's
Oh God no!!!!
I am running this number now, without the torque converter, shift kit and blower. I wanted to get into the 12's before that stuff. If I ran that with a supercharger.......

Re: The elusive 12's
Those are almost the exact same #'s my car was getting all summer!
I feel your pain man!!!
13.02 was my best time, 108 mph was my best speed, and 1.92 was the best 60'...............so close, yet so far
.
Oh yeah, and my Dad's car ('73 Camaro) pulled a 12.79 with a 2.1 60'
.....go figure

Re: The elusive 12's
Kind of makes you want to put your head through a wall, doesn't it.
A few hundreths or even thousandths of a second. Well, after the converter and shift kit, there should be no problems.

Re: The elusive 12's
Hahaha. I'm sorry. Missed a few words and reread it. That's what posting at 12:30 in the morning does I guess.
Regardless, try getting a real tune in there besides Hypertech. Get a custom tune, and I don't necessarily mean PCMforless either.

Re: The elusive 12's
Yes, I agree with the hypertech. I got the programmer about 8 years ago because I needed to adjust the speedo for the 3.73 gears. I am going to have the car reprogrammed after the supercharger and trans stuff.
