I can't upload a pic of my best time slip yet but here it is:
R/T - .084
60' - 2.339
330 - 6.474
1/8 - 9.861
MPH - 72.75
1000 - 12.758
1/4 - 15.191
MPH - 92.77

This is with headers, vette servo, and tune so far, the DA was around 3102 ft. Anyone guess what I'll pick up with the new cam?

Managed to run a few times last night with a little better DA and went 14.93 @ 94.25. Doing the cam swap tomorrow, hopefully it all goes smooth.

Got a chance to go to the track once with the cam, went 14.7 @ 96.7 on bald tires and not to great DA. Really need to get some drag radials.. Overall I'm pretty happy with the cam, has a bit of a lope to it at idle, and drives like stock until you step on it. The only thing im disappointed about is before the cam, a 35 roll was the sweet spot, now the truck is a dog from a roll. I didn't think itd be this bad with such a mild cam, do you guys think it could be fixed with a little more tuning or am I going to have to suck it up until I rebuild the tranny with a higher stall?

Either a higher rpm stall converter or gears will help shift the power band..I love my 4:11 gears

you may wanna look into a cheap trailblazer stall, or if you wanna do it right for more power later on do a circle d 278mm

Yeah, the next thing performance wise is having the tranny rebuilt with a shift kit and higher stall anyways.

Thanks, bought the cam NIB and used valve springs off this forum. You can get this cam new for around 400.
