Is this a high 14s car?
I was wondering with the following mods that I'm going to do this summer to my already moded car if it can break into the 14s for the 1/4?
Mods will be Spohn sub frames, Edelbrock Strut Tower,LCA Relocation, MSD 6A box and Blaster 2 coil, new plug wires, 3.42 gears, 2000RPM torque convertor, lockup convertor, tires.
I know alot of these time questions are asked but I was looking for some input besides my own biased one.

What times did you pull before the mods?

Never ran it but I got the dyno results in my sig if that helps.
Once it clears up I'll get it weighed and probably run it this summer.

i'd almost be inclined to say that with the mods in the sig, you'd probably be at low 15s. with the new mods you're planning on, you'd probably get into the 14s. maybe mid-high 14s? after a few practice runs with the new torque converter, you'd probably get it into the mid 14s. only one way to find out for sure --->

i am going to say mid 15s. I ran 16.5@84 with only advanced timing..........nothing else. i have peg leg and 3.23's, and i barely spun off of the line. So I am sure you will be faster than I was.
goodluck and report back

I never got the cam number when it got installed this summer(I will find out soon), but I think it is either a
Magnum 260 specs 260 ad intake 260 ad exhaust - @.05 206 intake 206 exhaust .500 lift 110 lobe
Extreme Energy 258 specs 258ad intake 264ad exhaust - @.05 206 intake 212 exhaust .480 lift intake .487 lift exhaust 110 lobe
The stock I believe is .350 intake lift .384 exhaust lift 179 intake dur. 194 exhaust dur. 109 lobe
The heads are stock and nothing has been done to them
