Talking another new best 13.496

13.496 now got to get the 13.3 maybe on a cooler less humid day. Was trying to leave more agressive but the track just wasnt biting with the street tires. Next time i will throw the m\t drs and see if i can get them to run quicker. my best 60ft cut a 2.026 on the street tires.
r\t .203 kinda sucky had better
60 2.063
330 5.771
1/8 8.753
mph 83.09
1000 11.314
1\4 13.496
mph 103.33

Any 2.0whatever on street tires is good. A few have posted better but that is not the norm.

Now the 103mph is off. You should be running 106-107. I'd be checking out every tune up item and looking for a vacuum leak.

Very nice man! Told ya that 60 foot coming down would help a bit.

But yea, what Al says about the MPH is true. Has anything else changed with your setup since your last run?

no pretty much the same just whether a little less hot. The humidity is bad so i am sure that wasnt helping much. At the end of the night i was stall up a little more and smoking the tires.Next week i will probaly put the m/ts drs on and stall it up more and see. Still needs plugs and wires. like to get about a 13.2 out of it will see

Almost a 13.5 at 103 sounds about right to me. I think 13.2 is do able with the m/t's and a better R/T.

I agree. My CAI/CB car had the same times with heavy 17x11 wheels with the exact same 60'

I'd get that tune up done and see how much it helps!

well finaly did the plugs and wire change. Found out my plugs were pretty good but one of my wires was broke reached down to grab it and just slid out of the boot. The car always seem like it need plugs and wires but still ran good times. The car runs 100 percent better so much smooter so hopefully running on all 8 cylinders 13.2 or quicker. P.S. I always thought my lt1 was bad at changing plugs now i know the ls1 is worse. Sounds like even more of a excuse to put the headers on to make room.

I'd say they're both PITAs.
