Accel 8mm wires
700R4 w/ vette servo and vette stall
3.27's in the rear
and a new set of bushings all around
(more suspension mods to come towards ending of summer)

so what do you guys think?


heres a picture of whats been done so far....oh and yes, on the bottom left hand corner of the picture is the bracket where my s-trim used to be....oh the memories....



and another with the SS on the side...

 

looks nice, i am guessing low to mid 13's, depending on traction also.

 

I'm going to go with 13.5 . I'd say ditch that Edelcrap carb Never had any luck with mine.

 

thanks for the reply guys. i too was thinking mid 13's but im really hoping for some low 13s. i dont plan on changing the carb for a long time because i pratically got the carb for a case of beer =). anyway, next on my list of mods are some gears and a bigger cam. hopefully all within the next month or so. go go tax returns!

 

I think you got low 13's there.

 

I went from 13.7 to 12.93 swapping off my edelbrock performer 600.

 

I agree with Mark, get rid of that carb. Also I think you do need to get that bigger cam. You do those two things I think you'll see 12's fairly easily. BTW nice SS!
