1/4 estimate and hp

mods are 2500 stall,edelbrock headers w/ory, bypassed t/b, cai, flowmaster 3inch full catback..transgo shift kit.and getting drag radials..my stock dyno put down 243 and 285 woth cheap gas and a missfire..i still have stock 273 gears..i want to be able to pull 13's..i beat my brothers 95 gt that ran 14.4's..and passed him like nothin..and raced my twins 99gt and hang/might pull on him which he ran 14.0's bone stock and now has mods and 410's..so with d.r i want to be in 13's..im hoping to hit like 270 rwhp
245 with good gas and tune lets say+
cai=5=250
+bypassed t/b+5=255
+catback=5=260
+headers=15=275..thats just a guess what you think?

Yeah, you'll break 13s. My friend ran a 13.5 with less mods than you, he did have slicks on.

Re: 1/4 estimate and hp

Your numbers sound right... you should be in the mid-high 13s with traction.

look at my sig, and you are not too far from me, if you need help I could help you out a little. The other reason you should be close to me times is because weather and elevation play a lot into times, with you being close to me you should be running in the 13's if not a little beter with a good combination.

The time in my sig, I was running Futura Ultra Z's I got from Pep-Boys!
I go to Cecil and MIR that would be a bit of a drive for you though, I grew up in MD not far from Cecil, so I think of that as my home track even though there are a few that are closer!
