I can finally ask you guys! *Guess my 1/4 mile time and trap speed*

The car (when I finish it this weekend) will be going to the track all day on April 4th, our Mechanical Engineering department rented the track for the students

1993 Z28
Art Carr 700R4 trans, full manual valvebody
Art Carr 9.5" ~3000 stall converter
Arizona Speed and Marine headers (1.75" primaries)
Stock Cat
SLP Loudmouth
SLP CAI
Comp XE 227/233 112 lsa cam (.560/.569)
Comp Pro Mag 1.6 rocker arms
EX high performance single coil valvesprings
EX hardened pushrods
!EGR
!AIR
!Air Conditioning
!AC Condenser
1LE intake elbow
Steve Spohn tubular LCA's
Spohn LCA relocation brackets
1.75" drop
stock 3.23's in the old 10 bolt
245/50/16 stock style tires

So what do you think I would run at the track? Before the cam, tranny, converter, and with a stock shot tranny I ran a 14.90. That was with the car shifting at 4300 rpm every time.


Oh yeah, Alvin at PCMforless provided the tune



The person that guesses closest to my actual time will get a cookie!

yep, the AS&M's shouldn't be choking anything



You really think I could hit a high 12?

If you can get a decent launch and your tires will hook up good then you should be able to make it into the 12's. My .02

If you find a set of slicks or DR's and dead hook all day long your 10 bolt might go. Have you beefed it up at all?

You guys think he'll only get high 12's to low 13's with a stall,headers + complete exhaust, and a cam. Not to mention all the rest of the stuff he has like suspension peices and what not. I was gonna guess mid 12's if you had DR's. Who am I to say though. Hell I know my car could have hit low 13's with my 3000 stall cai & cutout and DR's, that's with 2.73's back then.
