nothing persoal dude... but looks like you have a Vortech standard kit from those pics?

no way ur making 582 hp..... 425-450 on a Dyno Jet is maybe believable... either they skewed the dyno or your FOS.

and since u made no mention of a built Short block... I don't believe it. Also no boost reading on the dyno sheet WTF? never seen a boosted car without one.

That calculator is off by a good 4-5 tenths of a second. I put in our cars weight (3650) and 300 HP and it said 14.0 [:'(]

"Low 10s.Here is a calulator http://robrobinette.com/et.htm "

Neat calculator, but with two cars same HP/Weight..but different gears/tires, can't have the same ET.

theres a lot more to figuring a 1/4 mile time than just a dyno sheet. there are cars running 100 to 300 hp more than me and when we go to the track I smoke em. congrats on the power #s now take it to the track and see if you can get it to the ground. #s would be well into the tens, but you may only get 12s or even high 12s. good luck

Using numbers as stated: Low 10's at 132+

Just bring back a 130+ slip and they will believe you.

Dont forget a helmet. Shut off after the 1/8 and brake.
Once you have it trapping 110 mph in the 1/8 make a full pass and make it count.
You WILL get tossed as anything faster than 11.5 without a bar is history.
