Engine: 5.7 Tuned Port Injection
Transmission: 700R4 Auto
Axle/Gears: BW 9-Bolt 3.27
For the GTA around 235HP and 340TQ. These cars are low-mid 14 sec cars, probably 14.4-14.6.

I would estimate 14.4-14.7

When you say "replacement engine" what do you mean? Are all the specs the same? I know someone who has a 89 GTA with flowmaster exhaust, 2200 stall converter, rebuilt engine (stock specs), and rebuilt trans w/ shiftkit that ran a 14.7 last season. I'd bet if someone who knew what they were doing was driving he could get it down to the 14.4 range (he had 2.2x and higher 60' times)

Most stock times I've seen are in the high 14's to low 15's.

My car went 15.1s bone stock, without a tune-up. Which is about what I was expecting, it has 3.27 gears. Hope this helps.

I agree with Tony. High 14's at the very best, but more than likely low 15's.

My car is basically stock and I ran a 14.6 on the G-Tech and it wasn't even a staight or flat road. At the track I could probably hit a 14.4 at best.

That means you did it wrong, so you didn't run 14.6.
