thats about right with stock tires. I ran a 9.9 on my first ever pass at the 1/8th on a bone stock auto 5.0L with bald rear tires. then i ran on the bottle and my best pass was a 9.0. This was all on 3.08 gears. and your not making as much power as me on the bottle, so about a 9.2 is right, for a HCI gt40 car.

Yep - I'd think you'd be lucky to break nine with stock rubber.

I will set a goal for you 91lx. With the same gears, long tubes, meter, e fan, cold air and underdrives. Stock TB, intake, heads and cam.

8.9 @ 80.6 in the eighth.

235 45 17" Dunlop radials.

I feel my car is pretty strong in the 1/8 for a stocker. Hopefully you should match or beat my et but your cam and heads should put you much faster than 80.

well i took it last night to the track i couldnt get off the line for anything but i managed an 8.80 at 87mph the best part about it i pulled my buddies ls1 transam about 3 cars
i know the car has more in it than that but with the 87 mph speed i feel like with some drag radials i could see real low 8's

87 thru the 1/8 is flying.
