Re: Guess my time

low-mid 13's?

Unless your rear is really a 3.23, not a 2.23, then hi-12's/low-13's.

Re: Guess my time

5000 ft will kill the times, i have no idea what to expect

on sealevel or so, i'd expect mid 12's atleast, car could use more gear. Also depending on launch/weight etc

up there, i'm gonna guess lower 13's

Re: Guess my time

the stall will help plenty... although not familiar with 5000ft above sea level.
with any kind of tires, 12.8-12.9 trapping 104-106
no tires, 13.2 about the same trap.
12 second car is pretty respectable

EDIT: assuming 3.23

Re: Guess my time

That cam is going to be a high winder - so you need to gear it higher...

The most important item you need to understand is tuning. Getting the timing, air/fuel ratio, exhaust, and traction right can turn a high 13 second car (which is what it will run at your altitude) into a low 12 second one.
