I just got my 01 Scsb done took to. The track , ran a 9.5 spinning the whole my down the track has anyone ran 8.5 n/a my truck only made 325/356 heads cam full exhaust. Saw a truck running 8.8 never got the chance to ask what he did to make it hook. What are some of the things y'all have done to get your truck to run 8.8 and lower. I remember some guy said that truck was stock diff. Have y'all ran those kind of numbers with stock diff. What would be a good setup.

 

So many factors come into play, but your biggest issue was traction.

You stop spinning and you will gain a good amount of time for sure.

 

Yeah I found a guy that has a set of bf Goodrich r1 new for 250. But heard they were a auto cross tire anyways I was on a bald *** street tire.

 

Cal-tracs or Assassin Bars, drag radials, adjustable shocks, remove the middle leaf if you don't tow......

 

kinda tough. before i went turbo my lq4 ,cammed ,geared .caltracs.and converter on went 8.64 in 1/8 .i was shooting for 7's .but i was told that just about impossible .in a daily driver full weight truck

 

Definitely hard but not impossible. OP, you may want to hit up the guys below and see what suspension setup they are running. You may also get more help if you had this thread moved the the suspension section........

Thanks moving it now

 

the trucks in 53 BOWTIE post are turbo trucks like mine now .you can do it with turbo. now i have power now to run 6's in 1/8 mile now. he was asking natural aspirated i thought.

 

Yeah just natural aspirated heads cam full exhaust truck no power adders. Yet

 

Oh my fault, I thought he was asking what it would take to hook and run 8.50's regardless of drive train. I didn't realize there was an NA stipulation.....

I still think you should be able to get 8.50's NA no problem though. I have a bone stock Lq9, bone stock 4L60e with a corvette servo and 40K cooler, 3.73 gears with factory G80, and a Black Bear 93 Oct. tune and I run 9-9.2ish with the only traction mod being 255/50/16 ET streets and yest I did spin for about the first 60 ft before it hooked. Up next is an aftermarket posi and traction bars for me.
