Question I Need Some Advice on Improving My E.T.

I have some ideas, but I want to know what you guys think.

I want to break into the 11's so what should I do next?

Any suggestions?

Amazing times for the Mod's you have, "Excellent Driving".
If you can restrain yourself from overdoing it, NOS is your ticket. Affordable Mod, more HP gain than any other Mod out there.
Another option would be a new SuperCharger and bottom end work, but your talking about Major Money. No NOS on my L "YET" but I put it on my last Big Block Chevelle and Motor Cycle and highly reccomend it "IF YOU CAN RESTRAIN YOURSELF"

I was thinking of going with a 6# pulley. What kind of gains are people seeing going from a 4# to a 6#?

What was the temp when you ran the 12.2. How much timing are you running and what is your air fuels? Are you running race gas? That will help decide how extensive your mod list will have to be to run 11's.

6lb pulley - may not get you much in this heat, but with THOSE times, I guarantee it'll get you what you need.

Of not, screw it - get the 8!

Just to throw this in - I'm now over 10k miles with my 6lb pulley - daily driven, 400+ miles/week. I tend to keep my boost gauge above 0.

Otherwise, bottom-end and trans are both stock.
