with stock tranny and converter, whats about best ya can hope for in 60' times??

is 1.87 pretty good or not??

 

My personal best 60' is 1.72 w/ stock converter (3:55 gear)

 

ok, so there is room to improve.....

 

Thanks man...I met a lot of nice guys this past weekend and had a really good time.

Actually I knocked myself out, but it was a good thing because I got a new personal best against you on that run.

I didn't have ANY runs ever on my ET Streets. I had tried to run on my 20's during the TNT, and that was a huge joke. I wanted to tuck my head and leave after that pass. Every time I got on the gas much at all, my 20's would spin something terrible. I finally quit trying and coasted through with a 16.xx @ 79 MPH or something crazy like that.

Soooo...another Arkansas guy with similar mods as me had run a 12.67x in TNT, so I figured I would dial a 12.6 and be safe. NOT. I ran a 12.541 @ 110.05 with a 1.814 short time on that pass we were running. You seriously kicked my a$$ on RT that run though. I think you still would have beat me had I not run under my dial-in. You had a .583 to my .879. I must have been sleeping at the tree on that run.

BTW, your truck looks awesome! I love your hood and headlights.

 

I am running a 4lb lower and a 2.8" upper with a 68" belt, but I do have a new style Metco idler setup. When I tried a 67" belt I had to break off the tensioner tab to get the belt on, and I felt it was too tight. I would think a 67.5" should be perfect for you.

I haven't dyno'd with my current mods, but it's nice to compare similar ET trucks with RWHP and get an idea how close the dyno numbers from different areas match up with ET's. I was guessing I may be in the neighborhood of 435RWHP right now. I need to hit the dyno again and see how much the C&L plenum improved my numbers compared to last time.

 

thanks shock for the compliments, but your truck is just

 

NOt sure how that happened but thanks
