New Best: 13.579@102.2

Finally got the strip the week with the 85'. With the 100 shot I pulled of the 13.579@102.2. It was the first and only run I got to make on spray. I didnt spray till I was about 10 ft outta the 60ft area. I was pretty stoked. Just a 305 with Ported plenum, gutted airboxes, AFPR, 3" catback, 100 shot and some weight reduction. I pulled a 2.01 60' ft. So I know there is some room for improvement in the ET. What suspesion mods could I do to cut some 1.8's? (BTW I was on Comp T/A's) Also, what should I pick up by putting on a set of headers and putting in a 3000 or so stall?

That 60' is pretty good for Comp. TAs. How did you launch? Did you have lots of wheelspin or did you feather the throttle? With headers, slicks, and a convertor, you should be running into the low, low 13s.

Since I have the factory 3.42 rear...I cant bring up the rpm's that much before it starts to spin the rears. Im not quite sure what I launched at on that run, but there was barely any wheel spin.
