Spinning what? Was in vacuum @ 2K when I punched it. No boost at all. Was just slowly cruising in 3rd gear on an exit entering the highway.
I have no timeslips and this car has never once seen the track. I just havent committed the money into the mods that make visiting the track worthwhile. I would say Id probly run low to mid 12s on my first day at the track the way it is. With DRs/slicks and a stall converter I could run low 11s. With 3.73s and suspension work possibly high 10s. Forge the rotating assembly, up the boost and easily 10s. But thats all in vein.

Sounds like the 700 Whp vette friend raced in his pullied 03 cobra. His vette should've trapped 140 mph and ran 9's except was spanked by the cobra....

Oh i'm intercooled for sure. Its a 9 PSI pulley but has been running 10-10.5 in the cold winter air. It was hitting 10 back in October 2010 when I got it tuned. They tend to underrate the pullies, its better than overrating them in terms of public opinion. The smallest pulley in this setup is well known to make 16 PSI on a consistent basis.

Ok relax relax people lol theres a reason I used terms like "could" and "possibly" and "all in vein." Not trying to take any unearned credit with that post but none of the numbers I stated are far-fetched at all. They do assume a "good" driver. However with proper mods launching an auto is not the challenge that a manual is. High 10s are not out of the question with a forged rotating assembly and a setup that's sticking good.
No offense, because I really love your car and you have worked hard to get it to where it is, but it wont see 10s with suspension work and gears. You will barely seen high 11's with gears, full suspension, stall, and slicks. But you can probably run mid to high 12's as it sits. Main limiter being your traction. My guess is that it would trap around 113-114mph.

No no, I'm not mad because of you claiming what you think is possible for your car to run. I was just saying that with all of the mods you listed you still aren't going to get into the 10's. In order to hit 10's even with a 1.5-1.6 60ft you are still going to need to trap in the low 120's range... Which isn't going to happen, period. You could very likely hit high 11's, but 10's just aren't going to happen. That is all I was saying.

nice car love KB. I always thought a KB and blower cams would make for a great setup. Your car is mid-high 12s with street tires on a track as traction would be a huge problem for any supercharged with street tires. Basement 12s with DRs is my guess either way it is fast.
