I havent had it tuned yet what power you guys think its making. I drag raced it on wornout bfg dragradials. I got 3 runs in best was 12.287 @ 117.88 with 1.984 60 ft. I have lowering springs ,subframe connectors ,megabyte jr lowers and 355 gears. Any tricks to getting 60 ft lower? Whats best dragradial tire im not worried about mileage Update took it to dyno got 375.9 hp with the 9.4:1 cr 347. http://s430.photobucket.com/albums/qq24/spdtrip/?action=view&current=notchdyno.flv

Mt et street drag radials? 355 gears shifting at 6000rpm crossing in 4th at 6100 . I still have the factory tach. Im gonna try powershifting 2nd-3rd and 3rd-4th. Also have stock t-5 if it blows it blows. I had 1/2 tank of fuel last week ill try to be close to E as possible to save more weight. Going again wed nite maybe creep in on 11.99999
 
I wouldnt say "it blows" . The only thing that blows are the huge potholes as you pull in. And i guess my rear drum brakes blow at slowing down quickly from 119mph in the 1320. I like it because its 30 min from my driveway and wed is street nite. Ill look into new england dragway.
 
Got best of 11.901 @118.94 also 375.9 rwhp http://http://s430.photobucket.com/albums/qq24/spdtrip/?action=view&current=notchdyno.flv
