eigth mph...83.13

Maybe some "race gas " will get me a 12.999 ?

Those are very respectable times for as little mods as you have, I ran 13.01@107mph awhile back on regular radials and 3.23's but I had quite a bit more power than u do. On the next pass I strapped on some et streets and went 12.50's. Keep at it 12's are very close but if I were u the next mod would have to be Nitrous and then you can run low 12's or maybe even some 11's. I don't know if race gas will help you or not it depends if you are getting any knock retard and from your Et's and mph I doubt it.

Thumbs up

Indeed those are pretty impressive times for an LT1 with those mods. Just a cat-back exhaust alone would put you into the 12s and a stall converter even further

I agree with the guys above, very impressive times for the amount of mods! But anyway, forget a catback, slap on a $30 cutout, and go get your 12-sec slip!
