Minor upgrades

Hey everyone

So im going to the track again on oct 21st at Cecil county dragway. Last time i went, i managed to do a best of 14.7 at 94 with only a 3 inch catback that came with my 91 305 tpi camaro. Now that its been some time and ive had a little bit of money, ive done a complete exhaust (heddman hedders with the matching y pipe) and some bbk underdrive pulleys. Im doing the "ram air" intake method. I dont have fog lights so ill go from there. My question is what do you think ill run? Ill be happy with a 14.5 or 14.4. Id cry if i hit a 14.2 but who knows lol

Tyler

Re: Minor upgrades

auto or manual? i think 14.5 is a reasonable goal/expectation.

Re: Minor upgrades

for your next upgrade, the best bang for the buck would be a good quality converter. look at Transmissions Specialties, ATI, Yank, or the like for some good stuff. i bet a 13.9 or better would be possible with a good quality 3000 stall speed converter.
