Well with a 306 they say 350 Flywheel with 370 torque so I wouls say about 370+ at the wheels at least.....just a guess though it would make monster torque though.... I would love to see some actualy numbers but if I had to do it all over again thats the setup i owuld go with.

that sounds like a nice setup with forced induction that would be a monster

how did you only gain .5 in ET from a 100 shot? with a 75 shot i gained 1.2 seconds and 10mph. i got buddys that gained 1.2 also and gained 8mph..stomething isnt right

and with a notch you should be hitting almost high 12s without spray

i dont know i ran 13.5 at 107 with a 100 shot but i lost the pill for the fuel but i was running the 125 pill for the gas so it was rich a bit, but i had no hook up. my 60 foot was 2.4.

Thats a bad 60 foot time, I dont mean to be critical but your times would be faster with a more stable launch, are you breaking loose off the start? If youre using the juice in first gear and off the line it would be good of you to just use it in 2nd+. If you practice your launch your times will drop alot. What kind of suspension are you using? What do you all have done? If your engine is pretty close to being worked over with bolt ons, a tune would do you good, then focus on suspension. A coilover system and some rear lower control arms would do good and really help your times. If you want some nice control over your car upgrade the front suspension and you can throw your car through turns real nice. First you gotta find out what you need, you may not need to tear apart your engine.

ya I know i need better rubber bady, i just ran on street tires they are 245, my suspension has alot done its got bbk spring and different shocks and i got upper and lower strut tower braces and subframe connectors. so the plan for the summer is new rims and tires 275s or 285, im going to get a new fuel pump so i can run a good 125 shot, its a dry kit. then im going to make it so the shot will not come on in 1st but will come in second. and get it dyno tuned.

you said the fuel jet. dry shots dont have fuel jets they have a bypass jet. which allows for teh vaccum to help increase fuel psi thru the regulator

thats not much suspension but is enough to hook decent. spray that b1tch off the line thats how you get the most out of a combo. the first 60' is the most important for ETs
