my new 350

i have an 85 Z28 w/ the following parts already installed or in the process of installing:350/300 hp crate engine, edelbrock manifold, holley 650 carb, k&n airfilter, SLP 1-7/8" headers, 3" converter, 3" flowmasters, lock up kit for 700R4, new TCI 700R4 Tranny, JET stage 2 chip, 3.73 posi, new feul pump and lines. if setup correctly, what is this car capable of running in the 1/4 mi? i have heard anywhere from high 12s (doubtful) to high 14s. what would be an accurate guess? i want to have a good estimate before i run it at the track. thanks in advance.

Somewhere in the 13's. With a better cam and higher stall converter and sticky tires, easy 12's.

If tuned properly, deep in the 13s. if NOT tuned properly, mid-high 14s. Get the point? Don't expect to jsut bolt it together
and rip off a mind-blowing ET. Nobody can do the tunign for you either. It's DIY time once the basic mechanicals are bolted together and it's running.

Why the JET chip if the computer isn't being used?
