Before the cam and blower I had a best of 14.35 at 93 I think.



Blown ... thx! I'm pretty stoked about it. I'm only seeing 7psi at about 5000.

Purely guessing, but prolly about 5 inches of vacuum.

Nice run!!!

I can't wait till I can trap that high. I can't afford a Radix so I am going with the wetkit. My buddy has a refil station in his garage and only lives 1mile away so I'm hooked up.

Any one ever seen a truck trap at 115mph in the 1/4? And only hit high 12s doing so. Just curious.
And alot of people are saying 105 is easy 12s, but my best N/A ET was only 13.7.

I was running 13.5, 13.51, 13.52 with roughly the same trap speeds my first 3 runs. I logged the last one and realized I was hitting a rev limiter.

I had my 1-2 and 2-3 shifts set at 6300, which also happens to be where my RPM by ETC was set too. I will get a log of a 13.5 run up after while, prolly later tonite.

I think it depends on how fast you get off the line as to how EASY it is to hit a 12 with that MPH.

Most cars in the 105mph range will only hit a 12 if they can get better than a 1.9 60'.

My C5 stock was trapping 105mph running 13.0 on a 2.0-2.1 60'

I would think you'd have to see a 1.9 60' to get into the 12s enough to call it a 12sec truck. Should be easy to do with a 105mph trap speed and a converter, ohh and stickies
