Q. for guys runin low 12's
 

what is your 1/8th mile ET's and MPH?

comparison
 

not my truck, but here are some comparisons:

1/4 ET -- 1/8 ET

12.12 -- 7.42
12.15 -- 7.69
12.08 -- 7.77
11.3 -- 7.56


Looks like the faster you go in the 1/4 the more of it is at the far end of the track

my 12.05 @112.65 MPH = 7.682 1/8 @ 89.56 MPH
my 12.07 @112.39 MPH = 7.694 1/8 @ 89.30 MPH
my 12.39 @109.73 MPH = 7.934 1/8 @ 88.08 MPH

Got some more kicking around, but you get the picture

These are mine:

12.25@111.11 = 7.81@88.71 in the 1/8
12.11@112.30 = 7.74@89.76 in the 1/8
12.11@112.33 = 7.75@90.04 in the 1/8
12.07@112.27 = 7.70@89.94 in the 1/8

For low 12's you are looking at 7.6-7.9. When I get home I will post some exact numbers from my time slips. -Mat-

ok I need some help, here is what i have done to my truck. 2lb upper pulley,4lb lower,full jdm ss exhaust w/longtubes,cone filter, 90mm mass air,boost by pass,breather cap,denso IT 24's,custom built 4r100, PI 2600stall,cal-tracks,26-11.5-16 ET streets,2"rear drop shakles, diablo sport chip tuned for 104octane,a/f is 11.8 on the wideban,hitch is gone, front sway bar gone, 4858lb w/me in it. I was at E town last night and ran 12.975@103.02w/a 1.826 60ft time I thought it should be faster, HELP........ oh yea its a 2000

First thing you MUST DO
Is loose the 1.8 60 ft
I was getting 1.8's on my F-1's last yr

For each tenth you gain there, it SHOULD = 2/10ths on the ET
You need a 1.5- 1.7 to get a low 12 sec run
All my low 12's are 1.6 or 1.7 60 ft times on 28x10 Hoosiers

With your mods, you absolutely should be faster

My best ALL GAS ET's are still only 12.7's,
but thats only with a filter-chip-n-4lb pulley hot lapping with no cool downs. Stock Tranny + Convertor, Stock Exhuast, no fans, pumps, or heat exchanger mods, no ice, no nothing.

My (2)12.0's, (1)12.2 and (1)12.3 are all with 65HP of juice

Gator, V and many other's run hi 11's on ALL GAS with 6-8 lbs of extra pulley and all the other mods I don't have. JJ ran 11's with 3lbs of pulley and every other Mod known to man kind, but thats extreme and very hard to do.

You should be @ 12.3-12.6 IMO

You should be @ 12.3-12.6 IMO

Thats what I originally thought I should Go. I talked to Vinny last night and he thought it was the tires are two short.

Don't be upset about yout time Bad 00
You made a 12 sec pass, and thats fast as schitt.:thumbsup:

I just got off the phone with Vinnie a few minutes ago,
Look what happen to him last night, he always runs 11's.

Track Prep, temp, cool down, weight, gas octane, all play a MAJOR part and can affect your ET by as much as a 1/2 second.
V was way off his usual times last night too, so rest assure you have plenty there but maybe the track just aint taken it. God knows with all the rain we've had there can't be much rubber on the track to launch in. Even V's 60's were way off last night, hence his ET was off, LIKE YOURS WAS

I still can't run at my local track what I ran at Cecil, I'm off by 3/10th's still. Track and Prep IS EVERYTHING.

I just ordered a set of taller slicks so we will see what happens.

One thing to point out, which is most critical when looking at the times you lay down is MPH. If the MPH is there the ET will come. ET is a matter of skill and sometimes luck, MPH is the only indicator of HP and potential. Compare your truck to those with the same mods and look at MPH vrs. MPH. Do note that weather will play a big part in HP variations. In the same season the same vehicle could see 1-3% change in high MPH vrs. low MPH.

I hope this helps some?

:thumbsup:

If you are running at a 1/8th mile track only and don't care about 1/4 mile times, you can do other mods (like high gears, etc.) to "specialize" in that area....

Bad00,

It was nice meeting you at E-town. Your truck is SWEET!!!!!!

I think the 28 inches will help and you should do that 4:10 swap you were talkng about.
