What gear is in it? 4.10s are the way to go for you.

That intake will like rpm, which again is a good thing.

Do what ur doing, and use some decent upers and lowers, and a good tire, you should be capable of low 1.6 or even high 1.5 60fts

Should do 11.4s or so

I have 373 and a stock auto. You think i can get better 60 foots wow i hope. I going with the 90 or 95mm elbow and dont no what tb yet. Like i mention i have ported heads. The shop said they are considered race port so not sure what stage or specs they have. Since shocks and struts are lake wood what uppers and lower you think i should look at. Or should i ditch those lakewood

Lakewood is great, I and many others run them. Look into baseline control arms, I plan on running them in the future

Didn't know u had an auto. No you won't cut those times with it as of now. Get 4.10s, and put some money into that trans

My intake pulls great and it doesn't feel like I lost any power down low. And just because it has a high end power range doesn't mean it's just an up-top intake.

Of course I like it better than stock and the typhoon. The typhoon is a stock design made out of aluminum. The Edelbrock intake is the best cast intake with the most DIRECT flowing intake path.

If you're NA and are completely stock, work on the other mods first.
