As the title says, I went to the track and set a new personal best.

14.464 @ 93.14 w/ a 2.115 60'

This on street tires and very little traction.

Mods are: hedman lt's, th350, 3000 stall, LSRacing custom chip, and stock motor and rearend.

time for some suspension mods or slicks to get those times down.

White91GTA

time for some drag radials...got all aftermarket suspension on there (except panhard which is sitting in my room). i need to set the pinion angle since i didnt get a chance to when i put the tranny and everything on.

i am looking at getting a set of BFG G-Force T/A DR2's to put on my spare set of rear gta wheels.

mph seems a bit low, but other than that, good job!




bet with a beefed 700r4, the car would go faster.

i doubt the car would go faster with a 700R4. a Th350 has much better gear spacing, he needs to change his rear gears accordingly to adjust, and i agree the MPH is definately down from where it should be.

i need to change the info under my name...it no longer has the 700r4, i have a th350 now.

also forgot to mention that the motor that is in there is not the one from the factory...i blew that motor up...and the one i got is apparently a TBI motor and not TPI. it has the 193 casting swirl ports on it.

yeah, i read your sig, i know you have a th350. i think that a 700r4 would pick it up without having to change your rear gears and the car would still be very streetable. heck, i have 4.10's and a beefed 700r4 and i drive mine everday on the street with great manners.

but staying with the th350, i would recommend at LEAST a 3.42 rear, if not a 3.73 to help with the first 300 feet of the track.

Leave off the suspension stuff, You don't need it. Drag readials will get you what you need. I cut 1.7's 60 ft times with DRadials, and have cut 1.69 60 ft with Mcrearys. ALL with stock suspensions and gear.

With enough tire to hook up the power, the 700r4 may 60' quicker but the th350 will allow for a quicker 1/4 mile ET as the gear changes are spead out better.

Gear the car for the whole quarter mile, not just the first part of the track.

sorry, i musta worded that wrong. a 3.23 gear and a th350 is NOT geared for the entire track, i was saying to upgrade to a 3.42 or 3.73 to gain the first part of the track. it's not going to take away from the second part of the track though. to really pick a rear gear, we need cam/head/cr/intake specs.

and by reading what he has so far, he needs some heads too. cause they are holding him back. never-the-less, he has a very impressive time/mph for his setup.

White91GTA

mw66nova....thanks for the compliment on the time/mph. i know that i need heads, but i am in the process of saving up for a completely new setup. as of right now, it has 193 swirl ports on it, stock cam, stock compression, and an untouched tpi.
