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,

IS it finally a manual !

 

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.

 

That was @ 14.7 PSI.

 

i can tell you what you would have if you stuck an LS1 in their

 

I am trying to prove a point to a friend, he thinks my car will only run in the 13s. LOL

 

no it will very quick

 

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

 

What is the dissplacment for the LS1? Is it a 350?

 

using the basic drag calulator figuring weight/hp... 11.1s

 

well at 3000 pounds with driver...the car could be lighter..just for an estimate

 

Thanks

 

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.

 

witht he automatic in there, you should be good for low 14s high 13s, hehe. jk

 

5.7 350 or as some say a 57b

 

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?

 

he's talking about the stock automatics. we all know how horribly slow they are. now ugprade to a good aftermarket auto, and the story might be different

 

spoautos dynoed at 412(?) and trapped 125.

 

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

 

Punch your friend in the face, then show him my sig.

 

Yea, so can I....you'd have 100rwhp LESS

haha
