Quick Question about 1/8th mile E.T.

Right now my car ('91 Z28 L98) runs a 9.10@76mph with 1.9x 60 ft's, completely stock on street tires.. How much would a set of 3.42's and DR's with a shift kit help my times? Do you think that would get me in the high 8's? After that add complete exhaust to that (headers back) where do you think I'd be then?

3.42's would help..

thirdgen resources project 92 formula gained some time in the 1/8 with a gear change.

Wow man thanks for that link... It seems like my car is just about there judging by his timeslips and my timeslips....

His Best Run

60ft: 1.931
E.T.: 8.897@76.458

His Best MPH is 77.744

My Second Best Run (lost my best timeslip)

60ft: 1.934
E.T.: 9.111@76.199

My best MPH is 76.708

He's got 1 more mph than me but I think with some small things I can be in the 8's pretty soon.
