i say for that, 250 MAYBE 260, and yea mid/low 13(DRIVER DEPENDING)

im doing differant cam(comp cams, a little bigger) and intake(gt40), and a little more gear(3.73)... shootin for 270 and high 12s... just something to think about...

im also efi, so that may play a differance

i dont know **** about carb set ups, so i cant comment on the carb

i can say, the e cam will be fine, but you could do better(seen gt40 set ups w. e cam hit 260 before)

13's would be cool my 79 capri with e7 heads, 3.73 gears, comp cam 268 non roller , c-4 with 2000 stall, performer intake with 600 holley ran 14.50, andon the freeway it sucked to much gear,so 13's would be a nice jump, and with the t-5 i can get down the highway

thanks for the input

feel lucky if you got a 14.50@ 88mph....you'll need alot more mph to get better times
sounds like the motor was fairly stock....?? also you'll need more than a 2000 stall to get that car off the line quicker...with a mild cam I'd put at least a 3000 in it
