Re: On Nitrous what would i run?

I guess you're SOL then to know what it'll really run. You can guess all day long but you never know till you run it. I guessed on how mine would do after swapping in the current 350 and was way off, ran much slower than I thought it would first time out.

Yeup. I have a 70 mile drive to the track. A lot of guys drive further than that too. Being only a hour away is a pretty slick deal.

Ok, 13.9's on street tires on the street. You could always buy a GTech mine's pretty accurate.

Re: On Nitrous what would i run?

I have seen more than one stock L98 TPI hit 12`s on a 125 shot in 1320'.depending on gear,driver,tires,holding together,miles,proper set up and retard,stall and a few other things you should see 12`s.Get your trap speed amd mph and you can calculate the rest

Re: On Nitrous what would i run?

run on cast pistons, stock rods, it might not run very long. But you could try a g-force unit. I think they are somewhere now between 100 and 200 dollars. They are pretty accurate. I used one while running down track and it was only like .05 off my 1/4mi time. Might try that. Otherwise there is no way to tell, could be 12's, could be 14's, everything else is just speculation.
