As of now i have an 89 camaro. Stock 350 TPI with 3" headers back exhaust. Hooker 2055's into a strait pipe into Hooker Comp Catback. Stockairbox with ram air upgrade.


Will 3.73's get me there?

any advice is helpful. try not to flame.

Thanks

Nope they wiill take you a little further out of your powerband or so Iv'e learned. They wouldn't help unless you have 2.73's or something

 

3.5x's or 3.2x's would be better. 3.73's are probably a little too much for your combo, if your running an auto

 

unless your awesome at launching, get some 3.27's (3.23 with 10 bolt)

 

yea runnin on 2.73's now was just wondering what kinda setup would work out .. any reason why i should only get 3.27's?

 

well, with my 3.27 in my nine bolt i cross the line at about 4600
rpm. i will probably in the future switch to a 3.45 or so to pull me through the traps at say 51-5200 rpm. my tpi is modded so will pull just a hair longer than stock set-up.

 

what about a power adder? ur adding jsut gears not a power adder


my 3.27's pull me thru the line at around 4200rpms....

3rd gear to 4800rpms or so takes me to 110-115 mph


i would say, under a perfect launch which can be done, on decent street tires, u can cut a bottom 1.9 60 foot and hit a high 13

else ur gonna need a torque converter and maybe some bolt ons.

or the right suspension mods will also help... i think my 1.8's on street tires are pretty much due to the shocks/springs

if u put in some adjustable shocks and drag springs, u can launch very hard off the line and get 13's

 

wut if i had a 2400 stall w/ 3.45's 13's ? =)

 

What brand of street tires are you using to cut 1.8 short times? Any other suspension mods?
