Just curious what you guys think that I might run when I go back to the track with the 306....i had the hotcam in it and ran 12.8's so let me know what you think...oh car weighs 3600 race weight(ME included)

 

The ol' standard answer. Hopefully faster than before

Look at least a .4 reduction

 

Well the 12.8's with the hotcam was with it running out of gas and with 2.00 60'.....since then i have added 4.10's, CC lifters, 255lph FP, CC 306, GM guideplates, 1.6 RR's, thinner impala head gaskets and had the heads ported some more....picked up all around the curve on the heads...i think old heads use to flow 268 peak and i picked up around 10 cfm all around....car had 3.42's in it before.....

 

Well if you added that much more, I'd say high 11's to low 12's providing you get traction with those 4:10's.

 

Hmm, i'd hope for 3 tengths.

Sorry to be a pessimist but honestly i don't think you'll pick up anything in ET and maybe 2 mph since i don't see tires on your list. More tq + more gear= more tirespin
When i added 40 rwhp and 20 lb of tq to my car I picked up 6 mph and only 2 tenths. Granted i was at a much crappier track but in much better weather. The car definitly is faster and has more potential now, it's just not as easy to tap as you think.

Now obviously if you can match that 60' your gonna gain, but don't go in there hoping for a miracle.

Good luck

I am with them..... You will definatly have more power but at the track....................traction is the biggest issue. But you can always tell how strong your car is by your MPH at the end so that should tell you how good you are running.
