i think its pretty good for no stall little gears and my only REAL mod being exhaust the other stuff is piddly bolt ons

ill have a 2400 stall and 3.73s before i head out to the track again. what should i expect then.
just curious let me know what you think good or bad.
thanks

pretty decent run for a auto with just basic boltons....

 

you have good MPH but you have too much tire. Your car will run faster and quicker with a Drag radial. Later

 

I always thought that with all the bolt ons you usally get low 13's high 12's? Am I mistaken?

 

i pulled a 13.76 @ 102 w/ 2.1 60' last night. My mods are intake, cut-out, !cat, Free mods and I gave it a tune up.

I have SLP headers and Spohn lower control arms waiting to be installed. So I personally, think your times should be faster.

 

I'm afraid i'm not going to be able to make it to the track again this year, it's storage time.

I still think we should be running faster. You'r not that far ahead of with and you have a few more mods than i do. And i have an M6. I'm sure if i would have ran a few more times the last time i was at the track i coulda been in the mid/high 13's, but i only made 3 passes and one was a complete f_ck up and ran a 15 sec.

My best was a 13.952@100.63 2.2 60 ft

i would lower my tire pressure and launch a little harder. and i think i have my exhaust set up right this time. If i went to the track today i would think i can go atleast a 13.7-13.8 easy.

I still havent tuned my computer, or done the LCA's. I just dont understand what were doing wrong. a 97 SS is suppose to run 13.9's off the showroom floor.

o well, i'll keep you posted over the winter if i do anything.
