ET Reduction?
Anybody have an estimate on my ET this year? My 79 383 w/3.73 gears and 2400 stall coverter on street tires went 13.0 @105. I've changed to solid body mounts, 3200 stall and BFG Drag radials.

I want 12's !!!

What were your 60' on the street tires?? My guess would be 12.6 range without knowing anything about your motor.

The typical 60' time was 1.8-1.9. I'm expecting at least a tenth improvement, but she hooked pretty hard even without good tires.

I am in the process of changing my control arm bushings and U Joints. After that, I put the front clip back on and then I should be rolling. I'm hoping for 2 weeks before new ET's posted!!!
