hopefully i can get the car back together by next sunday and ill take it to my local 1/8th for one of the last tnt. just kinda wondering what i might run.

82 t/a crank windows manual locks hard top 305 .030 over flat tops 416 heads with screw in studs guide plates "z28" springs heads been shaved some unsure how much 1.6rr summit 1103 cam .442/.465 214/224 edelbrock 1406 carb edelbrock performer rpm intake hedman lt headers i dunno if ill have me new exhaust on yet or not but ill either have 2 1/2 td's no x or h pipe into 10series dumped or single 3.5in with cutout ito stock ls1 muffler th350 trans shift kit 3500 stall ls1 aluminum ds 3.73's eaton posi 28spline axles. only thing im having prob with is finding some tires to run on my 17's dont hook for ****. anyway got any good guesses it will be my first time at the track with the car. thanks

 

I would say high 9's in the 1/8. Why do you need a cutout for a 3.5 inch exhaust?

 

high 9's? I was hoping for atleast low 9's guess the only way to know will be to run it. not the whole exhaust is 3.5in just the i pipe and cutout over axle is 2.75/3in into stock 02 ta muffler and tails. car is getting a built 350 in the spring.

 

good luck, let us know

 

Yeah keep us updated.

 

Your set up is pretty close to mine and I run low 9's

You should be able to hit mid to low 9s depending on how well its tuned.

I ran an 8.7 1/8 mile with less compression, less stall, slightly bigger cam, 4.10s, and open headman longtubes. That was on a crappy tune with way to much timing and running way rich.

 

i gotta tune the carb before i go its pig rich right now. wot is nothing but black smoke. burns your eve's at idle too. i hope to get bette than high 9's lol i ran a 10.5 in my yukon xl (suburban) with only an intake.

 

well went to the track and im very disapointed the new converter is not what i was told it is. ran a best of 9.7 car would spin bad going into second and was a dog off the line. best 60' was like 2.3x 76mph. gona tune the carb with week and change the exhaust and hope for some better times. new converter wouldnt let me brake stall it no more than 1500.

 

What did the converter flash to?

 

around 1500-1700 old one flash to 2200
