What kind of times can I expect with my mods?

I am racing at Cordova on the 29th and was wondering what my car can do. I have never raced on a dragway before. I may be ordering some DRs.

Thanks...

Do you have a stock converter?

Yeah it's stock...

I am going to get a Vig 3200 later this summer.

Re: What kind of times can I expect with my mods?

I have kinda the same mods as you, and with M/T drag radials I hope to possibly hit a 12. I do have some weight reduction though which I think may help me get there. Anyone I talk to thinks I am crazy for wanting a 12 second pass with my mods......but before my headers and my gears I ran consistent 13.6-13.7. My car will weigh less and has a good amount more power.....I think I can do it. I will be seeing here in about 2-3 weeks or so.

I am new to racing and I have no idea how well I will do. I am tired of the people I run around with calling my LT1 crap. So any help all you guys on this site can give is appreciated.

If you are running the stock converter, I would guess 13.40-50's if you hook. The stock converter only stalls about 1600 and really kills your launch.
