I was dissapointed in the times I run last Saturday.....only pulled a 14.1 at 96 with a 1.9 60 ft..... my car has full exhaust built tranny with shift kit and slightly bigger stall, Holley stealth ram intake, ported 083 heads, and 275/40/17 tires and my car weighs 3560 pounds with me in it....I was really hoping for a high 13

stockish cam..not completely sure of the specs since it was in it when i bought it......not really i just stalled it and rolled into the throttle and it dint really spin at all....my stock tach doesnt work and i dont have a shift light so i couldnt manually shift it(couldnt hear my car over the competitor) and it was my first time drag racing

More power, less weight. LOL, that is what makes my cars run in a straight line.
Get rid of the 17" rims and use some 15's to give the tires a bit more sidewall to work with. Put some sticky tires on the rims.
Find some way to take at least 200 pounds out of the car. The less weight you need to move, the faster you can go with the same amount of power.

save up for a nice set of heads and a cam to go along with them. that would put you at least in the bottom 13's i would think.
or spray it.

DA was 2200 so very far from optimal.....we were in humid *** louisiana weather too
