Ok, as the title suggests, everyone must be sick of people asking these questions, but what do you think I would run in the 1/4 mile with the mods in my sig? Oh yeah, its a 700R4, and it's got a K&N filter(but thats almost a given).

Do you guys read? 700r4 is not a 5 speed. With your suspension mods you should be able to pull some good 60 foot times if you've got decent tires. If the car is in good tune, maybe mid 14s. Stock heads, cam, and torque converter could all use upgrades if you really want to go fast. Best "mod" would be a new block with larger bores, though

If your motor's running strong, I'd say high 14's.

A 305tpi(other than '86) with a 700r4 and a 3.23 or 3.27 gear, should run low 15's/high 14's with a good launch if the car is in decent tune.

My 100,000 mile '85 305tpi/700r4/3.27 trans am ran high 14's @ 92-94mph with only a catback exhaust and some free mods.
