What kind of ETs should I expect with 435 HP?

With ET street tires and what would it run on regular street tires. Lets just say, what SHOULD my car run with a good driver and this horsepower. Thanks,

Brady Mahoney

Not yet, but really soon. I have everything but my rear diff, and that will be on the way soon I think. Then I can crank up the boost. With the auto I got 405. Chris @ RP said I should get 30 more HP switching over to manual.

with good driving and the proper drivetrain parts, you should be capable of low 11's, maybe even high 10's if you drive like a mad man. i know 350ish whp is good for mid 11's

with the ET streets you should make it into the 10s with good driving. there are guys on the forum running 10s with 400 rwhp.

You really think it would be that slow? I have never ran it at the track?

No. If ATX was so much slower than Manual then high powered drag cars wouldn't rely on automatic transmissions (obviously not stock ATXs, but still). No missed shifts with an ATX...and when the track is gone in 7 seconds do you really want to have to worry about shifting four times?

do you know how to drive good? when you said that you havent been at the track, then its your first time and you might get lucky and break 11's but since it your first time, i doubt it. it was the same for me. i was getting mid 14's with a stock fd. dont worry, it will only get better

If it is your first time at the track, then expect 13's for a few passes. Be happy with 12's. Most likely, you are not going to go to the track on your attempt with a 430rwhp car and run 10's or low 11's.

Technically, it's a 346...

bore squared * stroke * # cylinders * 0.7854 = CID
3.90" ^2 * 3.62" * 8 * 0.7854 = 345.95 CID
