Thumbs up new converter = new time

went from a yank 3200 to 3500 and it made a huge difference. this was at the local 1/8 mile track

1/8 mile
previous best 1.886 60' 8.177 85.08mph 12.825 105.90mph

new time 1.723 60' 7.905 84.77mph

so i dropped almost 3 tenths in the 1/8 alone.. what do you guys think the 1/4 mile time would be?

these times were also in a 25mph head wind

i know it had a 1.6x 60' and 7.8 in it, it was just getting too crowded

Gah thats nice man!!
i ran a 8.1@88 1/8th mile but ive got good top end to pull off a 12.5@111.

You had a better 60' better 1/8th time but im guessing the head wind is what killed your MPH.

12.4@108 is my guess? if you can get that 60'.

Man you need to swap to a different cam, and really watch your times drop.

Not bad at all..should be pretty close to 11s without the headwind.

Are you full bolt-on cam 6.0? & what size cam since it was mentioned you needed to change it?
